How to Die Cut 2-Color Morning star Quilt Blocks: 

For best results, position fabric on the lengthwise grain (straight of grain) as it goes under the roller.  Tip: The die is specially designed to cut one 2-color, 12" block in one pass through the cutter. 

  • Fabric Color 1: Cut three 12" x 4 1/4" rectangles and place over A shapes.  Cut two 4 7/8" x 4 7/8" squares and place over B shapes. 
  • Fabric Color 2: Cut three 12" x 4 1/4" rectangles and place over A shapes. 

Note: You will have two extra isosceles triangle shapes for each color.  Set aside for future blocks.

AccuQuilt Benefits: 

  • Cut so much more fabric in less time. 
  • Get accurate cuts every time -- No slipping rulers or mistakes
  • Easiest to use -- Simply place die on cutter, then fabric and cutting mat on top
  • Save fabric with Two Tone Foam -- Get more out of your fabric by placing it only over the shape you want to cut. 
  • Safe to use -- No blades come anywhere near your fingers

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.
