Fabric Color 1:
Cut one 4 3/8" square. Place right side up over shape A to cut one shape.
Cut four 4 7/8" x 2 3/4" rectangles. Place right side up over shapes B to cut eight shapes.
Fabric Color 2: Cut four 11 3/4" x 2 3/4" rectangles. Place right side up over shapes C & D to cut four of each shape.
Why Quilters Love the GO! Irish Chain Die:

This quilt block is great for beginners and seasoned quilters alike. Perfect for traditional or modern quilting projects.

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.
