Die Tips:
- 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 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 Studio dies are guaranteed for one year.

per page- One of my favorite dies! Review by Sharon

Overall Rating This die is amazing! I have always wanted to make a Winding Ways quilt but hesitated because accurate curved cuts are very difficult with a rotary cutter & curved ruler. The studio cutter combined with the Winding Ways die and matching up the notches on the curves make this a snap to put together. No more puckers or wonky looking blocks. I highly recommend this die. I plan to make many more quilts with this die! Thank you Accuquilt for making this die!

- I couldn't...but now I can! Review by Angela

Overall Rating I have come to the realization that I cannot effectively cut curves with a rotary cutter. Likewise, I purchased by Studio and this die set and am now quite happy saving time and money (less ruined blades and quilt rulers!).

Overall Rating This pattern is quite easy to put together. I used my built in walking foot and quarter inch quilting foot with blade on the right side, to piece the units. The notch system really does make things accurate.
