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.

Wanting to work on my stash, I cut over 800 of these blocks in just a couple hours. Quick disappearing 9-patch for a stash of baby quilts now and plenty to practice my quilting.

AWESOME!! Review by Alisa

I just received my Studio cutter and the 5" square die. I had the Studio cutter set up and was cutting out 5" squares in no time. I love being able to cut so many perfect 5" squares in so little time. This die will save me a lot of cutting time. Thank you Accuquilt!!

I'm able to cut 120 5" squares in just a few minutes! This is great for online/blog swaps and for sharing charm packs with friends. I do a 5" charm swap with my quilt group and we cut all of our squares fast and ez during our group meeting.

Wonderful! Review by Margaret
Overall Rating

I use this die frequently because the disappearing nine patch is one of my favorite blocks, and I use 5 inch or 6 1/2 inch squares for those blocks. (I have the 6 1/2 inch die cutter also.) The die cuts are consistent and more precise than those that I cut with a rotary cutter, so, in the long run, my Studio saves me time and fabric.
