TIP: To create a scrappy Crazy Quilt Block: Use at least 10 assorted prints. Cut up to six layers of fabric for the first pass through the cutter and then cut up to four layers for the second pass through the cutter.
- Cut 10, 13 1/2" x 13 1/2" squares. Place on selected blade and cut in two passes through the cutter. One yard of 40" wide fabric cuts four complete Crazy Quilt Blocks.

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.
