Hilbert curve fractal, order 5, with round corners SVG
Which one? SVG for Cricut and lasers, DXF for the free Silhouette Studio, PNG to print.
Free for personal and commercial use, no sign-up. What you can do with it.
The fifth order of the Hilbert curve: 1,023 steps through a 32 by 32 grid, with every corner cut and rounded so the line flows. It still starts in one corner of the square and ends in the next corner along.

How fine is it at your size?
Scaling a design scales its finest detail too. Here is this one at seven sizes, from 1 to 12 inches on its longer side, with how many copies fit a 12 × 12 inch sheet or mat.
| Size, width × height | Narrowest part | Cut length | Fit on a 12 in sheet | Rule of thumb |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × 1 in (25 × 25 mm) | 0.36 mm | 1,410 mm | 100 | Too fine for most machines |
| 2 × 2 in (51 × 51 mm) | 0.71 mm | 2,820 mm | 25 | Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care |
| 3 × 3 in (76 × 76 mm) | 1.1 mm | 4,231 mm | 9 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 4 × 4 in (102 × 102 mm) | 1.4 mm | 5,641 mm | 4 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 6 × 6 in (152 × 152 mm) | 2.1 mm | 8,461 mm | 1 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 8 × 8 in (203 × 203 mm) | 2.8 mm | 11,282 mm | 1 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 12 × 12 in (305 × 305 mm) | 4.3 mm | 16,922 mm | 1 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
The narrowest part is the finest detail in the pattern. Below about half a millimetre it is too small to cut and may fill in when printed. How to open the file in Cricut, Silhouette and laser software.
