Use GO! dies with your GO! and GO! Baby Fabric Cutters to cut precise, accurate shapes in just seconds.
Features and Benefits:
- Cut so much more in less time—Cut up to 6 layers of 100% cotton fabric at once
- Easiest to use—Simply place die on cutter, then fabric and cutting mat on top
- Get accurate cuts every time—No slipping rulers or mistakes
- Create quilts you never thought you would—AccuQuilt makes cutting curvy classic quilt patterns a snap
- 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.

- Cuts two of each Review by Jackie
-
Overall Rating I love that this die cuts two of each size triangle!!!!

- More than the sum of their parts Review by Feed Dog
-
Overall Rating I love that this die adds so many more possibilities to the hexagon die. Each die is great on its own, but together they're even more useful.

- Try them alone Review by Nancy
-
Overall Rating These are made to use with the hexagon, but I use the 2 larger sizes alone for scrap quilts. Great way to use those really small pieces!

- Stars Review by Maryanne
-
Overall Rating Makes the perfect stars when teamed up with the go hexagon die! Very dramatic results. This die has two triangles on it so you cut twice as much at a time. I used this die for my stars, I had 8 layers of fabric and it came out with32 pieces in no time at all I cut 176 triangles for my project.
Must have for hexagons and saving time!(Posted on 4/21/12)
- Lots of possibilities Review by SewCalGal
-
Overall Rating This die is so easy to use with Hexies, but I've also found it fun to use on its own to make Mug Rugs with scraps.
I'd actually love to see some larger Equilateral Triangles, to make blocks with. Fun die.

- Looks like fun Review by Diane
-
Overall Rating Don't have this one, how many pieces do you get from each cut? I could really get into this one.
Reply from AccuQuilt:

- Very cool! Review by DIANNE

Overall Rating Who ever thought cutting these could be so easy!!! I'm so impressed with the product and the quick shipping.

- Great for Scraps Review by Amy
-
Overall Rating I have been cutting my triangles by hand with an acrylic template, which works but is pretty slow. This can be used for Thousand Pyramids, 6-pointed stars, and yet another way to turn small scraps into useful quilt pieces.

- Great die Review by Emily
-
Overall Rating Great for kaleidoscope quilts, I can cut 6 layers at a time on the Baby and it doesn't shift the fabrics. Also the shapes go with the hexagon die. What we need next: the diamond shapes that match this die!
