You see, in that package was a new die for my Accuquilt Go! cutter.
It is a 60 degree equilateral triangle.
The notches are on the bias sides according to the package.
I considered a ruler, but to be honest, I don't like using triangle rulers and they get "nipped" when I do. The die will allow me to explore using 60 degree triangles. Then, if I "need" a ruler to keep exploring, I can get one.
I cut some triangles with the die.

I can see lots of possibilities with this shape and this die. I have no idea what these pieces will become, but I love it already.
Until Next Time,

I have that die and have used it a bunch. I think you will be quite happy with the die.
Those "sales" are bad for my credit card - LOL - but that die looks like fun! I agree - if you're using fat quarters - a die is the way to go - but sometimes if I have a bunch of pre-cut strips - I think a ruler is more efficient with less fabric waste - ;))
No need for them to become anything, they are already BEAUTIFUL as is!
Oh my gosh Gene, you and I are on the same page. I purchased the ruler, I thought about the die but I wanted a larger ruler. I did a few cuttings with it but put it away for a while. I actually ordered it from Amazon, they sent me a cross stitch "Joy" instead. I was so frustrated because what I was working on I wanted it now. Well....it took about a week to replace and then the mood left. I love what you are doing. Is a great scrap buster too. Enjoy your die.
This is so beautiful, love the colours!
I love what you have started . . . it will be fun working with these bright and cheerful fabrics.
Happy Quilting!
