Description

Die Specifications:

  • Compatible with: AccuQuilt GO! Fabric Cutter (55100)
  • Required: 10" x 10" cutting mat (55111)
  • Cuts two 5" x 6" (13 x 15 cm) isosceles triangles

Storage: 10" x 10" die board (25 cm x 25 cm). Organize GO! dies with AccuQuilt GO! Die Storage Rack (55115).

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 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.

So versatile! Review by Nancy
Overall Rating

One of my favorite dies. You'll be surprised how many quilt variations you can make with this and how easily. No guessing on the piecing with the corners nipped off.

fast fun and easy way to make perfect triangles Review by Diane
Overall Rating

I have used this die twice now to make two different tops. I saw a vendor at a quilt show that was selling these shapes precut in little packages. I purchased the die and cut my own out of some solid gradiant hand dyes I dyed myself years ago. The table runner turned out beautiful, even used them in the border. They stitch together really nicely and I can't believe how quick it is to cut all those triangles out with your products. Thanks.

Terrific Review by Judy
Overall Rating

Love this die for using up larger scraps. Years ago I made 1000 pyramid with a cardboard template and drawing around it with a pencil on the back side of the fabrics. Now, just a couple cranks of my GO and I've cut 8 of them. I've got a plastic shoebox almost full and will be making another one soon.

Perfect for cutting knit fabrics! Review by Tammy
Overall Rating

While not a typical use for most, I used this die to cut some of my daughter's outgrown sleepers to make her a happy birthday banner for her first birthday party today. It worked perfectly and I had the banner done in no time! (Always a great thing when you have such an active little one.)

I have just finished a kaleidescope quilt top using this die in combination with the 3" finished triangle die. Got some great hints on making this kind of quilt, and now, I will be making many more thanks to this die! I love it!

Very Useful Review by Gene
Overall Rating

This die is very useful for making saw-tooth borders. It is also great for cutting the pieces for a kaleidoscope quilt. I love the die.

The only regret I have is that the wonderful quilt shown in the images doesn't have a link. to a pattern. I searched but didn't find the pattern.
