I have a silhouette and maybe Jennifer does as well. The svg file on my machine wants to cut out all the pieces of the boat. I had to modify it so it would only cut the outer edge of the canoe and for the scored lines I changed them to a spaced line.
Thanks for letting us know, Carrie. We’ll take a look at the file and see what adjustments are needed to make it easier for our Silhouette users!
Just wanted to let you know that there seems to be a problem with the svg cut file for the canoe. Sadly this is not the first problem i have come across after signing up for your website in January. I am feeling disappointed after waiting so long to subscribe to your site. ( i am a huge fan of your designs)
Hi Jennifer, what’s the problem you’re having? The file is fine on our end– please send an email to hello@liagriffith.com with a screenshot and some details if you can so we can troubleshoot with you!
