How to Die Cut 3 1/2" Strips:
• 3 1/2" Strips: Cut 7 1/2" wide strips across the width of fabric to cut two, 3 1/2" strips. Position fabric on die so fold of fabric is perpendicular to cutting blades and will roll through the cutter first. One yard of 40" wide fabric cuts 9 strips.
• 3 1/2" Squares: Start with a 3 1/2" strip aligning it across the die board with the 90° guide line. Fanfold into 7 1/2" widths. Cut 10, 3 1/2" squares across the width of fabric. One yard of 40" wide fabric cuts 90 squares.
• 45° Diamond-5" Cut Side Edge: Start with a 3 1/2" strip. Align your 3 1/2" strip across the die board to the right side of the 45° guide line.
• 30° Diamond-7" Cut Side Edge: Start with a 3 1/2" strip. Align your 3 1/2" strip across the die board to the right side of the 30° guide line.
• 60° Diamond-4 1/8" Cut Side Edge: Start with a 3 1/2" strip. Align your 3 1/2" strip across the die board to the right side of the 60° guide line.
