Die Tips
Die Tips
- With some fabrics, a thread or two may remain where the die blades meet after cutting. Snip any remaining threads with scissors.
- On some dies, the blades are positioned at an angle. Align the fabric with the edge of the shape, not the edge of the die board.
- Use good-quality fabric to reduce stretching.
- It's always a good idea to test-cut one shape before cutting multiple shapes to ensure the fabric orientation is correct.
