Best Free Script Fonts for Cricut
Where can you find the best free fonts for Cricut? From script fonts, cursive fonts, fonts for monograms, the options are endless! If you’re looking for the best fonts for your Cricut Maker, Cricut Explore Air 2 or the best free fonts to download from sites like dafont, I’ve got you covered.
Fonts can be finicky when it comes to using them on your Cricut. Some fonts could be too intricate and when you go to cut it, it completely tears apart. With so many different font choices, how do you know which one is best to use?
I’ve included my favourite fonts below along with some very popular fonts that you might have seen on your favourite Cricut projects in design space or on social media. These are perfect for the budget-strapped crafter!
First things first.
What is the difference between Cricut fonts and System fonts?
If you’ve browsed in Cricut Design Space, you may have noticed there are three tabs under fonts. “All“, “System” and “Cricut“.
All: Shows you all of the fonts you have between “System” and “Cricut”.
System: Fonts you have installed on your computer, tablet, or phone.
Cricut: Fonts you can use with a Cricut Access subscription.
Do I need Cricut Access?
It depends.
If you are new to Cricut, Cricut access gives you access to a whole database of projects and resources. Note that when you stop paying for Cricut Access, you lose access to any projects you made using Cricut access resources.
If you already have a growing list of resource files on your computer (SVGs, fonts, etc), I would skip Cricut Access.

SALTY OCEAN
This font is great for many small-scale projects because of it’s bold nature. That means that you’ll have less “super thin” parts that easily tear when you go to weed your designs. Check out my Glitter ornaments tutorial to see this font in action.

Wow is this ever a popular font. So many people love it because you can add little hearts that connect words to this script font so you have one full piece. It’s great for projects that have many names you want to interconnect like on this super popular Mom Tile project.
