(straight of grain) as it goes under the roller. Tip: The die is
specially designed to cut one 2-color, Maple Leaf block in one pass
through the cutter.
- Fabric Color 1: Cut three 3 3/4" squares and place over shape A and
cut. Cut two 4 1/8" squares and place over shape B to cut. Cut one 3
3/4" square and place over shape D to cut.

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.
