How to Die Cut Simple Shapes
Apply fusible web product to wrong side of fabric, following manufacturer's instructions, before cutting fusible appliqué.
- To Use 2 1/2" Strips: Cut and fuse 2 1/2" strips across the width of fabric (or use with precut strips). Fanfold up to four layers over the shapes on the left and right side of the die board. Cut three of each shape across the width of fabric. One yard of 40" wide fabric cuts 18 of each shape.
- To Use Scraps: Place pre-fused scraps on blade and cut.

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.
