What\u2019s an SVG file? SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphics. They\u2019re often used for simple, 2D graphic images that need to be re-sized. They can be re-scaled without losing resolution. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" data-attachment-id=\"11892\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/iris-folding-favourite-things\/img20230604165040\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-scaled.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"2560,2560\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;1.7&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;OPPO Reno8 Lite 5G&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1685897440&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.71&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;328&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.016666666666667&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"IMG20230604165040\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-300x300.jpg\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-1024x1024.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-11892\" srcset=\"https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-2048x2048.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/busybusylearning.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG20230604165040-1600x1600.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Why do I need to know about SVG files for iris folding? When iris folding you need to cut out your outline template onto a material so that you can begin to iris fold.

The main reason for this is that it can be used stand alone and you don\u2019t have to connect it to a laptop. This means I can teach members to use it independently during group sessions. I love being able to empower people to use new technology.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The main reason I love the idea of the cutting machines is so I can design my own templates and then make my own pattern to correspond with it.
