FAQ - GO! Fabric Cutter
What is the AccuQuilt GO! Fabric Cutter?
A portable fabric cutter designed for home use, the GO! Fabric Cutter can cut up to six layers of fabric at a time. The GO! Fabric Cutter features its own line of exclusive dies that are lightweight and affordable. The dies feature a self-tray system and use a specially designed self-healing cutting mat.

The GO! Fabric Cutter includes a free die that features three shapes in one—4 1/2" square (4" finished), 2 1/2" square (2" finished) and 2" finished half-square triangle, a die pick, a 10" x 10" cutting mat and a user’s manual.
How long will the GO! cutting mats last?
GO! cutting mats last for hundreds of cuts on both sides before needing to be replaced. You can extend its life by rotating and flipping the mat and not cutting in the same place each time. Dies with extensive blades such as the rag dies will wear mats out more quickly. If you start to experience inconsistent cuts, it’s likely your cutting mat needs to be replaced.
