How to Die Cut 3-Color Spool Quilt Blocks:
For best cutting results, position fabric on the lengthwise grain (straight of grain) as it goes under the roller. For three complete 3-color blocks, cut two layers of three different fabric colors at a time.
- Cut 10 1/2" strips across the width of fabric. Fanfold into 4" widths. Place on selected blade and cut. For a three-color design, 10 cuts across the width of fabric of one color will yield enough pieces for five complete blocks. One yard of 40" wide fabric in each color will yield 15 blocks.
