AccuQuilt Rag Die
#1
In light of my recent experience with washing a quilt top that raveled to the point of being unusable, I was thinking of doing a raq quilt. I have an Accuquilt cutter and have ordered the rag die. Anyone ever used this and if so, how well does it work? Also, how many layers of flannel will it cut? Thanks for any info.

I was told by Accucut rep to put a thin piece of paper on the die before the fabric and the rag threads would not get embedded in the die. Maybe after a thousand or so cuts the paper will dull the blades. I don't baby the dies, if I want to cut paper I do.

I have the 8 1/2" rag die for my Go! and have used it for one quilt. IMO, It was a big pain to use. Cleaning out the die was more time consuming than clipping the quilt. I don't think the die was worth the money.
