Fab Five SVG

About this design

Five is fabulous, and this shirt says so with a bit of sports swagger. Two horizontal red stripes run across the middle, like the bands on a varsity sweater sleeve. A heavy royal blue 5 sits right on top of them, ringed in white and then varsity gold, so the stripes seem to pass behind the number. Fab arches above in big, heavy navy letters, and Five is spelled out underneath in the same bold face.

The stripes make the design wider than it is tall. That suits the front of a shirt or a hoodie and gives a nice look on a banner too.

What each layer holds

• Base and lines: deep navy, the backing behind every part
• Varsity red: crimson, the two stripes
• Varsity gold: warm golden yellow, the outer ring on the 5
• Royal blue: bright cobalt, the number
• White: clean white, the inner ring on the 5
• Lettering: deep navy, the words Fab and Five

Pieces and weeding

The solid file has 15 pieces and 5 cut-outs. The two stripes, the number and the words are all separate, so lift them together on transfer tape or keep iron-on on its carrier to hold the layout. The stripes are long and straight, which makes them quick to weed. It passes our cut checks from about 5 inches wide.

Size guide

At less than 5 inches, the gap between the stripes and the rings gets too narrow. Use Print Then Cut for small printed tags.

Building it in iron-on

1. Mirror the design and cut each iron-on color shiny side down.
2. Press the navy base so the stripes and number have a guide.
3. Add the red stripes and the gold ring.
4. Place the white ring and then the blue 5.
5. Finish with Fab and Five in navy.
6. Use the pressing directions that came with your vinyl for each step.

If you want the fastest version, cut the solid file in one color. The stripes and the outlined 5 still give it the varsity look.

Fab party ideas
