Strip Cutter-2" is a die that cuts four 2" strips in one pass. It also cuts 2" squares and 45°, 30° and 60° diamonds. The strips finish at 1 1/2" wide. Built-in guide lines help with accurate cutting for sashing, narrow borders, string piecing and bindings.
It cuts up to six layers of fabric at once, including folded fabric still coming off the bolt. To cut strips, cut 8 1/2" wide strips across the width of the fabric, with the fold perpendicular to the blades so it rolls through the cutter first. For squares and diamonds, start with a 2" strip and align it with the matching guide line on the die board.
One meter of 100 cm wide fabric yields approximately 17 strips or approximately 310 squares. The cut side edge is 2 7/8" on the 45° diamond, 4" on the 30° diamond and 2 3/8" on the 60° diamond.
