Description

Die Specifications:

  • Use die with GO!® Fabric Cutter and Cutting Mat-10" x 24" (55113)
  • Cuts five 1 3/4" (4.5 cm) strips.

Storage: Organize GO! dies with AccuQuilt GO! Die Storage Rack (55115).

Die Tips:

  • Cut up to 6 layers of cotton fabric at a time. For thicker fabrics, start with fewer layers and build up.
  • With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors.
  • Use cutting plastic 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 roller to clean lint and thread from dies. After each use, with the die pick provided with the cutter, remove any threads embedded 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.

PERFECT Review by DIANNE
Overall Rating

I recently purchased a pattern book I had been looking 2 years for. The lady at the quilt shop was trying very hard to sell me all the templates for the pattern I was making first. I told her I had an accuquilt and wouldn't need them. She said oh but the don't have the right size strip cutter. I pulled out my cell phone and proved I just need the book. This is a great size for older patterns and I love it.

Good for inner borders Review by DARLENE

I like to frame my quilts with a narrow border and then a wider one.The accurate cutting of the strips make projects picture perfect.

A great addition to my collection! Review by Judy
Overall Rating

I just finished putting a baby quilt top together and needed a small border to finish off the project. This size was perfect to make the strips I needed. This is a great size for sashing between blocks as well. I know I will use it a great deal.

I am able to cut small strips accurately with this die. I am using the strips to make my accent border for my latest quilt. It looks very good!!!

Good choice Review by Mary
Overall Rating

Log cabin quilts with uneven logs often use a 1.75 strip to finish at 1.25 inches. Cutting 1 is enough for me, but 5? unlikely without the GO! die.
