GO! Half Square-3" Finished Triangle
Two of the triangles cut with this die sew together to form a 3" finished half square triangle and match up with one 3 1/2" cut square. You can easily make 12" blocks with 16 sewn half square triangles. Twist and turn these basic quilting units to achieve any number of block designs including pinwheels. Add some other square and rectangle dies from our AccuQuilt GO! mix and match system and your quilting world has expanded even further. This very versatile triangle also works with Triangle-4 7/8" (55002) for Flying Geese units and with Triangle-Isosceles-5"W x 6"H (55016) for the corners of Kaleidoscope blocks! Die packaging includes project directions for a Half Square Triangle To GO! 24" floor pillow.
Notice we have cut off the dog ears on the half square triangles. Simply place the fabrics right sides together on the die, cut, then pick up a pair to quickly sew a perfect half square triangle. AccuQuilt GO! shapes are designed to cut with precision and speed—and to sew together beautifully!
Cuts four 3" (8 cm) triangles. Includes seam allowance. Use 5" x 10" cutting mat (55110).
Die Tips:
With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors.
Use cutting mats that matches size of each die.
For best results, cut with die blades running under roller at an angle. Do not cut with blades parallel to roller.
Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle. Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board.
Some dies feature specially designed corners to aid in alignment and pre-cutting.
For fast applique, apply fusible web to fabrics, then cut shapes with dies.
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.
