How to Die Cut Apple Core Shapes:

For best cutting results, position fabric on the lengthwise grain (straight of grain) as it goes under the roller.

  • To Fanfold Fabric: Cut 7 1/2" strips across the width of fabric. Fanfold into 6" widths. Place on selected blade and cut. Cut six apple cores across the width of fabric. One yard of 40" wide fabric cuts 24 apple cores.

  • No need to be afraid of curves! Apple Core features matching notches on curved seams for easy pinning and piecing.

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.
