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.

Overall Rating I wanted to make a Card Trick quilt for sometime, had made one 30 some years ago, but the thought of all the cutting of 2 sizes of triangles were more than I wanted to do. Then came dies 55031 and 55047 and the pattern from Accuquilts block of the month "Angle Play" block#10. 1,100 pieces later I have the needed pieces for a queen size quilt. Could not have done it without the cutter and dies from Accuquilt.

- Love this one! Review by Pat

Overall Rating I love this die.....and have also used it in combination with the 2" (finished) HST die on the Value Die to make flying geese units. I am hoping that there will soon be a QST die that will finish up to 3" as well as one for 6" and one for 8". There would be so much that could be done with these in various sizes!

- Accuracy is amazing Review by Cammy
-
Overall Rating I don't have to worry about whether I need to add 3/8" or 5/8" of an inch now to make my triangles come out right. This is so much easier and so much more accurate than I am. :) Love the die!

- perfect for piecing Review by Mary
-
Overall Rating Was at guild retreat and our block was card trick. I used this and the 4.5 half square triangle and had 3 done before any one else. The directions on the card trick pattern had been poorly written but could be figured out if you were a seasoned quilter. I encouraged other quilters to try it at retreat

Overall Rating This quarter square triangle die is one of the most used dies I have. Star blocks are a HUGE favorite of mine and this die makes the flying geese super fast to make...and waste...there is none.
