Triangles are a basic building block in quilting. Arrange triangles
in colorful combinations for great quilt designs. Two half square
triangles cut with this die, sewn together form a 4" finished square.
Use with 4 1/2" square packaged with your GO! Fabric Cutter to create
pinwheels, borders and more. Die packaging includes project directions
for a Stretched Stars to GO! quilt.
Notice we have cut off the dog ears on
the half square triangles. Simply place the fabrics right sides
together on the die, cut, then pick up a pair to quickly sew a perfect
half square triangle. AccuQuilt GO! shapes are designed to cut with
precision and speed--and to sew together beautifully!

Care & Maintenance:
Use adhesive lint 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
match 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.
