Leave a CommentHello, do I have to become a member in order to download the template?
It has any cost?
We are doing our vacations bible school and we will love to do the centerpiece.
You can become a monthly member for the templates. This allows you the monthly collection plus 5 extra projects for only the cost of $14.99. 🙂
After I download this I can’t go back and look at the tutorial? I hope I can
We suggest you download and save copies of all patterns, instructions and tutorials to your computer so you always have them to reference!
I do not see an SVG to cut with my machine. I only see to download and print and svg. How can I get the SVG for cutting electronically?
Yes there is an SVG available, it’s the first download titled “Large Paper Sailboat SVG”.
So beautiful!I like it!
Hi Can I separate the sails to cut separately? Thanks
Yes, they’re set up as different colors so they will automatically cut separately in Design Space.
Hi, Lia! I’m trying to download svg for the sailboat but it doesn’t let me. I’m using my iPhone. Can I do it on my iPhone or does it have to be a computer? Hopefully it doesn’t because my laptop is not working :((
Hi! As far as I know, you have to download our SVG files to a computer, then upload to Design Space. You may be able to find more info on Cricut’s site and perhaps there’s a workaround to use a smartphone or tablet!
Thank you!
