This is a work-in-process post - I used the registration feature on the Epilog laser and it’s awesome (and easy) so I wanted to share.
I’m making a quilt with some appliqués that I wanted to laser cut. By printing two 1/4" black circles on my fabric and telling the Fusion that they were registration marks, it can locate, square and align exactly where the vector cut belongs.
As a learning point, the black perimeter lines were a bad idea. I forgot to remove those lines and on one image the lines confounded the registration process.
If you look closely you can see where the vector is being cut. I put a little bit of “bleed artwork” around the desired cut lines just in case.
Artwork designed in Photoshop/Illustrator, custom printed on cotton at Spoonflower.com. Laser cut on the Epilog fusion (after ironing Soft Fuse onto the back).
