- Save fabric with Two Tone Foam—Get more out of your fabric by placing it only over the shape you want to cut
- Safe to use—No blades come anywhere near your fingers
- 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.

- Great for anyone with arthritis in their hands Review by Anita

Overall Rating I make infant and toddler rag quilts for sale and charity. Your rag dies have been a lifesaver for my hands. No way could I make the number of quilts that I do if I had to cut and snip by hand. Thanks Accuquilt!

- New beginning Review by Patricia
-
Overall Rating I made a rag quilt early in my quilting career and swore I would never EVER do it again after all that hand cutting. It may be the single cause of my carpal tunnel!!! Anyway, I just bought this die. Not sure I will run to make a rag quilt, but nothing can be as bad as hand-cutting! I figure I can sew two or three squares together and make a table accent for the coffee table to see if I want to embark on another rag quilt!

Overall Rating This die makes quick work of cutting and sewing a rag quilt. The fringe is what sold me on this die. It is so much fuller and beautiful than I could ever cut on my own and no aching hands. Love this die!

- Have really come to like this die Review by Gail
-
Overall Rating I bought this die on a whim and I am really glad I did. I have been cutting them out like crazy for Project Linus quilts. I couldn't have done them without this die. I really suggest viewing the video on this die - lots of good tips - and you don't have to clean the dieafter each use! The 6 1/2" die works great for the batting.
