How to Die Cut Small Clamshell Shapes:

For best cutting results, it is extremely important to cut with this die on the lengthwise grain.

  • Cut a 5" strip across the width of fabric. Fanfold into 4 7/8" widths. Place on selected blade and cut. Cut eight clamshells across the width of fabric. One yard of 40" wide fabric cuts 56 clamshells.

Why Quilters Love the Small GO! Clamshell Die:

TIP: It’s easy to change the size of a clamshell quilt by adding more clamshell shapes to the length or width.

Die Tips: 

  • With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors. 
  • Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle.  Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board. 
  • 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. 

Use adhesive roller or die pick to clean lint and thread from dies. Die blades never need to be sharpened.

AccuQuilt GO! Dies are guaranteed for one year. We may deny warranty coverage if the product is damaged from using an unauthorized part.
