About Chris Marchini
Chris Marchini of Rose City Originals is a quilt pattern designer putting his own unique twist on this timeless art form. After watching quilting videos on YouTube for years, he decided to make a quilt for his mother-in-law for Christmas. That led to him making additional quilts for more family members as gifts. After not being able to find a pattern to match with an idea for a quilt, he started drafting his own patterns. Chris has gained popularity online, growing a large audience on TikTok where he posts short videos ranging from how-to tutorials to fabric pulls for upcoming projects. You can follow him on social media @RoseCityOriginals and purchase his quilt patterns on his website RoseCityOrignials.com.

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.
