It often takes lots of hexagons to piece quilt designs. The AccuQuilt
GO! Hexagon-2", 3", 5" die cuts hexagons fast and perfectly. Use for
traditional quilt designs like Grandmother's Flower Garden or Eye Spy
quilts. Experiment with hexagons cut from fabrics other than cottons,
like wool or felt, to create home décor projects such as candle mats.
Hexagons can be sewn together by hand or machine. Die packaging includes
project directions for a Hexagons To GO! table topper.

Care & Maintenance: Use
adhesive roller to clean lint and thread from dies. After each use,
with the die pick provided with the cutter, remove any threads imbedded
between blades and foam. It's normal for threads to get caught where
blades meet in a die. Remove with tweezers or die pick. Die blades never
need to be sharpened.
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 applique, 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.
