    We have had a boat for many years now. There is an amazing lake in our State that we like to frequent as a family. I have so many fond summer memories of long, lazy days out on our boat.

    This summer we used the boat A LOT! Much more than normal. Turns out that boating is a great activity if you need to stay away from other people. (Although I prefer boating with all of our friends and family, next summer I hope!)

    Halfway through the summer, I got the idea to make a set of boat t-shirts for my girls. Since I was designing T-shirts for them, I thought I might as well go ahead and make an entire set of Lake themed SVG files!

    About our DIY Lake T-Shirts

    Our Lake t-shirts were created using two colors of Cricut Iron-On Vinyl. Navy blue and gold foil. (btw: these are my favorite t-shirts by far for this kind of project).

    How to Get the Free SVG Files

    Each month we offer one SVG file free to our readers. We pick a different theme each month and I’m excited that this months’ theme is “Lake Life!”

    The free SVG file this month is the “Worry Less, Boat More” SVG. You can get it emailed to you by filling out the form below. The rest of the files are available for purchase in our shop.

    How to Get All of the Lake SVG Files

    To get the other 5 files, I’ve created a special SVG bundle in the shop! These are all instantly delivered files, no need to join our Cricut newsletter (but you should ’cause we’ve got lots of great info to share!)

    Included in the bundle in the shop are the following files.

    1. Lakes Laughs Lighting Bugs
    2. Lake Junkie
    3. Boat More, Worry Less
    4. I’m Sorry for the Things I Said While I was Docking the Boat
    5. Just Add Water
    6. Lake Squad
    7. Home is Where the Anchor Drops

    To purchase the SVG bundle, just head on over to our shop or use the widget below.

    How to Make Lake T-Shirts

    You may be thinking “well this is all well and great but how to I actually MAKE the t-shirts?” You’re in luck, we’ve got an entire blog post walking you through the steps of obtaining the SVG files, uploading them to your Cricut Machine, and creating your T-shirts!

    What is a Cricut? A Cricut Machine is an electronic cutting machine. It hooks up to your computer via USB or Bluetooth and cuts images you send to it, much like a printer. It just cuts instead of prints. It can cut vinyl, paper, fabric, and much more. The images are all digital; you can upload your own images or buy images in the Cricut Design space individually. You can read my full review of the Cricut Maker Machine HERE.

    You don’t have to limit yourself to t-shirts either, these SVG files are great for pillows, signs & tote bags as well!

    My Favorite Cricut Products

    • Cricut Maker 3 (you can get great deals on machine bundles on Cricut.com)
    • Roll Holder for Maker 3
    • Cricut EasyPress (I like the large size the best): Make sure you get the EasyPress mat as well.
    • Cricut Weeding Tools: (I use the small hook tool ALL the time, making weeding vinyl so much easier).
    • Cricut BrightPad: A cordless, flat, bright lightbox. I use it to weed Cricut vinyl and use it all the time to trace applique shapes for sewing & quilting.
    • Cricut Iron On Vinyl
    • Cricut Permanent Vinyl

      Love them! I have had a boat for over 20 years and these would be awesome! Unfortunately, I do not own a Cricut and I would have no idea how to make these.
