How to Choose the Best Blocky Fonts for Cricut
Picking a blocky font is all about what you’re making. Here are the key things to keep in mind:
1. Pick a mood: Blocky fonts can feel playful, sporty or spooky. Rounded, bouncy blocks suit kids’ crafts and birthdays, while square, condensed blocks look sharper on team shirts, logos and signs.
2. Check the inside shapes: Fonts with inline details or cut-out letters look amazing, but the small pieces need a little care. Cut them at 1.5 inches or taller so nothing lifts off the mat.
3. Use reversed block fonts as labels: Fonts that set white letters inside a solid block work like ready-made labels. Cut them in one piece of vinyl and the letters stay perfectly spaced.
4. Keep the rest simple: Blocky fonts are loud, so pair them with a clean script or a simple sans serif for names, dates and smaller words.
