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.

Fast and Fun Review by Christine

This was one of the first dies I used with my new Accuquilt Go. I was able to cut 8 pieces at once with no trouble at all. I love this easy pattern and at this rate, I will be able to sew through my entire stash!

Ease of using this die Review by Nancy
Overall Rating

The 6 1/2 " tumbler die is soooooo easy to cut and use for a quilting project. I scrounged through my fat quarters and came up with about 20 to use to make a "large" double sized quilt for our bed. Starched the fat quarters first and then just cut away using my GO! It was ready to sew together so fast and easy to accurately get that 1/4" seam, too. Now just to longarm quilt it and I'll post a photo to facebook. Thanks Accuquilt for another great die.

the tumbler die that hooked me on Accuquilt Review by Diane
Overall Rating

I tried the Accuquilt at the local quilt shop and I was hooked. This was the first die I used to cut that day, and loved the ease of it so much that 3 of us combined all of our holiday Halloween fabrics and cut out enough tumbler blocks to make 4-5 tumbler quilts. I know I cut out over 700 in a single day from different fabrics. We each ended up with at least 1 of each of the various fabrics. They pieced together quickly (A king size quilt mind you) and I was hooked on Accuquilt. I went out the next week and bought my own cutter, dies and mats and off I went. This is the best die to start out with because the blocks align so easily even for a beginning quilt maker. We are now selling kits made up of tumblers at the quilt shop.

Awesome Review by Mrsg730

I just bought several dies and just had to try them all! I tried cutting tumblers with a template in the past and hated it. I just tried this die and loved it! I will be using this one to make my granddaughters quilt and I'll have it cut in no time!!! Go Accuquilt !!!!!
