Meet the GO! Fractured Tumbler-3” Finished die. The 6” x 12” die board hosts shapes to build two different 3” blocks – but those shapes can also be re-arranged to give you an unending array of design possibilities, so let’s dive into some ideas and get you ready for all the great free patterns that use this die.

Two of the larger shape togeter make a 3" finished square.

But that, as they say, is just the beginning of the fun! You can mix & match the shapes together. This can be used to create a super scrappy look, but depending on your color placement, can create many different creative “looks” and secondary designs.

One large shape equals 2 small, still finishing to 3".

Create a unique pinwheel look with four blocks together, finishing to 6".
