Has anyone cut felt with their Silhouette? Is yes, where did you get the felt and what settings did you use (if you remember)?
Thanks!

I have, I had felt from Papertrey Ink but it was way too thick. I used the fabric settings I believe (or textured cardstock worked) and you need to back the felt with some iron on transparency to stiffen it. I then bought some felt online but saw that the fabric stores also sell it. I wanted wool felt thus the reason I went online. I purchased it from here prairiepointjunction.com/Wool-Felt-Central-Wool-Blend-Felt-Yardage
ETA - I should also say if you have intricate designs, it doesn't cut that well in fact you can plan on doing some hand cutting after. I also found it didn't cut as cleanly as I'd like and I would double cut to ensure it cut through the felt. Most cuts were pretty good. If you don't back it you can pretty much guarantee the felt will slip while it's cutting and ruin the cut so definitely back it.
I cut these out, but did the stars with manual dies.

I've cut it with my Pazzles Pro before. The stiffened felt cuts much, much better than regular felt.
