Square-6 1/2" die cuts squares that measure 6 1/2" and finish at 6" once sewn. It cuts cleanly through multiple layers of fabric at once. It is one of the basic shapes in the GO! Mix and Match System die collection.
The square includes 1/4" seam allowances for easy alignment and piecing. It suits background squares, small applique blocks and checkerboard block layouts, and it helps create typical 12" finished patchwork quilt blocks. It is used in blocks such as Flashing Windmill, Sawtooth Star and Ohio Star.
It can cut cotton, batiks, wool, felt, flannel, fleece, Cuddle fabrics and more. It can also cut batting squares to pair with rag squares cut from the GO! Rag Square-8 1/2" die (55013). To cut, place the die on the cutter, then the fabric and cutting mat on top. For best results, position the fabric on the lengthwise grain as it goes under the roller.
