I have a fantastic mini quilt that you can make with your Cricut Maker plus 10 great Mini Quilts that you can make quickly with your Cricut Maker because let's be honest, not having to cut your own fabric is just plain awesome.  And the fact that the Cricut Maker uses a rotary blade it can cut virtually any fabric without a backing or stabilizer and is totally precise when doing it is seriously genius.

True story, I used to make applique onesies for a friend of mine with cutout letters and all and wished every. single. time. that I cut out shapes by hand that there was a machine like this.  They must have read my mind because it's finally here.  

And if your a little quilty, you will totally appreciate all the time (and pain) that can be saved when cutting tons of small pieces of fabric.  Plus the crazy cute coordinating fabric samples made just for the maker.  You can read more about how to get started quilting in design space and how easy it is to make a quilt with a quilt kit and pattern using the Maker.
