Gee, I am so curious as to what the die looks like. This would be SO easy to make with Tri-square triangles.

Thanks for all your comments!!
I have an Accuquilt Studio, so the die set I got was this one:

The chisel and triangle dies for the GO! need to be purchased separately, but make the same size finished block (3"x6").
The quilt is not an Accuquilt pattern, just one I saw on a wall somewhere... It's just 4 chisel and triangle units. The only thing you have to remember is if you use a print, you have to cut 2 with the slant going one way and 2 that are mirror images. Just cut the fabric in pairs with right sides together. I used batiks, so both sides were the same. The rows are offset by half a block along the length.

You can pretty easily make it without using a die cutter. Start with a 3.5" X 6.5" rectangle and snowball the corner, however, the dies have engineered corners so placement is simple. I cut and assembled the whole quilt top in less than a day. I think it took longer to pick out the fabrics.
