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.

Care & Maintenance: Use adhesive lint 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.

Warranty: AccuQuilt GO! dies are guaranteed for one year.

Great time saver Review by Sandy

I love this die to cut strips. Now I can make my own jelly rolls with my stash. It also saves wear and tear on my wrists. I plan to invest in more strip dies!

Versatile die Review by SewCalGal
Overall Rating

This is a very handy and versatile die. While many look at it for cutting strips, it is also a great stash buster die. My favorite use of this die is cutting scraps into useable strips, even small strips. Also works well for crosscuts, to create 2.5" squares.

Most used Review by grada
Overall Rating

Of all the dies that I purchased so far this is my favorite. I spend at least 4 days cutting all that excess stash of mine into 2.5 strips, made a lot of bindings, strip sets for purses, small strips. Now I have 2 big plastic see through containers with all the strips sorted by color. Before I had at least 5 containers of excess materials. next purchase will be the 1.5 " so I can do even more strip quilts. Love my accuquilter, just wish that the dies were not so expensive. Of all the quilt connected purchases this it the best and most used item. Love it Love it.

Great! Review by Jessica
Overall Rating

I love this for bindings! It is also good for anything you want straight strips for. It takes all the work out of cutting them. I love how it is open on the end so that you can have strips longer than the die itself.
