Die Tips:
- With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors.
- Use cutting mats that matches size of each die.
- For best results, cut with die blades running under roller at an angle. Do not cut with blades parallel to roller.
- Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle. Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board.
- Some dies feature specially designed corners to aid in alignment and pre-cutting.
- For fast appliqué, apply fusible web to fabrics, then cut shapes with dies.
- 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.

The GO orange peel is a real game changer for me. I love orange peel quilt designs, and the quilt I am currently making needs 256 of them! Either cut your fabric and raw edge appliqué, OR (I am not a raw edge lover) … I use it to cut my appliqué paper shape which I can then iron onto my fabric and needle turn my orange peel, or machine finish with a decorative edge. It saves soooo much time when you’re as fussy as I am about the finish!!!

I love orange peel quilts and after I made my first peel quilt by cutting out peels by hand from computer paper l thought there had to be a better way so l was thrilled to find l could buy one to go with my go big. My go big must’ve cut thousands of peels out by now with this die and it still looks new. Rather than it taking me days to cut by hand my peel die gets it done in no time at all. I prefer the raw method then l machine blanket stitch in place. So much fun and so many different quilt layouts are possible.
