- No more math—Geometric shapes are designed with an accurate 1/4" seam allowance in the design
- Quilt more, clip less—No more clipping all those dog-eared corners
- Quick and easy applique—Apply fusible web to fabric prior to cutting
Storage: Organize GO! dies with AccuQuilt GO! Die Storage Rack (55115).
Care & Maintenance: Use adhesive roller to clean lint and thread from dies. After each use, with the die pick provided with the cutter, remove any threads imbedded between blades and foam. It's normal for threads to get caught where blades meet in a die. Remove with tweezers or die pick. Die blades never need to be sharpened.
Die Tips:
- With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors.
- Use cutting mats that matches size of each die.
- For best results, cut with die blades running under roller at an angle. Do not cut with blades parallel to roller.
- Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle. Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board.
- Some dies feature specially designed corners to aid in alignment and pre-cutting.
- For fast applique, apply fusible web to fabrics, then cut shapes with dies.
- Use good quality fabric to reduce fabric stretch.
- It's always a good idea to test cut one shape before cutting many shapes to ensure fabric orientation is correct.
Warranty: AccuQuilt GO! dies are guaranteed for one year.

- Timesaver Review by Beverly

Overall Rating After getting the correct die, I used it to cut another freaky mock cathedral window quilt needing 8 1/2"circles. They are accurate and a real time saver. You cannot have enough circle dies. I know this one will be added.

Overall Rating My sister and I made Cathedral Window Quilts using this die! We made the background in a white on white fabric and the centers are fancy cut fabrics creating an I SPY quilt! It was so much fun! Thanks!

- So glad I bought this die! Review by Barbara
-
Overall Rating I have a quilt pattern that uses lots of large circles and this die has made it so easy! Every time I make a version of my 'circle quilt', I get so many enthusiastic comments. Now with this die it's really quick and easy to make! Now I'd love it if AccuQuilt would make a die that has two 81/2" circles so I can cut two different fabrics at once.

- Fantastic, would buy Review by Julie

Overall Rating Love the large circles, I would buy them all but postage to Australia for (1) die is $84 and (2) $130. Very restrictive, I have bought dies from other sellers in USA and postage is between $15 - $20.
