And since we’re working with iron-on vinyl, I’m also going to show you how to layer it so you can make cute decorations on your blanket. Like an adorable Baby Yoda, or a super cute giraffe, both of which were made with layered iron on vinyl. A lot of people tell me they’re confused about layering iron on vinyl, but it’s really pretty easy, and I’ll show you how. For this tutorial, I’m using several kinds of vinyl — for the numbers and letters, we’re using a soft flocked vinyl that feels like fabric. And for the layered iron-on decorations, I’m using regular Cricut everyday iron on, which is your basic iron-on vinyl that works on pretty much everything for the giraffe, and Cricut SportFlex iron on vinyl which is great for stretch fabrics like this fleece polyester blanket — I used this for the Baby Yoda. You can layer almost any vinyl — just don't put other vinyl on top of glitter iron on, foil iron on, holographic iron on, patterned iron on, or printable iron on. If you want to use those, they should be your top layer. And you can layer SportFlex iron on, which we’ll do, but then you should ONLY use SportFlex in your layers and no other vinyl because SportFlex stretches and the others don’t. There are a few important things to remember when layering iron on vinyl. 1. If you have more than two layers of iron on vinyl, reduce your press time by at least half, otherwise you risk overheating and overpressing the bottom layers. 2. Always use a cover sheet of some kind when you iron on additional layers of iron on vinyl, like a teflon sheet or parchment paper (that’s what I use). 3. When possible, trim your iron on vinyl layer’s carrier sheets so that you can do multiple colors at once — it cuts down on time and reduces the likelihood you’ll get little lines where your carrier sheets were. 4. If you’re having issues getting your iron on layers lined up, you can use the star alignment tip: add stars to each layer in the same spot and use them as a way to align your layers each time. The stars don’t have to end up on your finished project, and I’ll show you how that works!
