How to Die Cut Rob Peter to Pay Paul Quilt Blocks:

For best cutting results, position fabric on the lengthwise grain (straight of grain) as it goes under the roller. Cover A shape with three layers of one fabric color and run through the cutter, then cover B shapes with three layers of a contrasting fabric color and run through the cutter. 

• Shape A: Cut an 8 3/4" strip across the width of fabric. Fanfold into 8 5/8" widths. Place on selected blade and cut. Cut four A shapes across the width of fabric. One yard of 40" wide fabric cuts 16, A shapes. 
• Shape B: Cut a 9" strip across the width of fabric. Fanfold into 5 1/4" widths. Place on selected blade and cut. Cut 14, B shapes across the width of fabric. One yard of 40" wide fabric cuts 56, B shapes.

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.
