How to Die Cut Can Cozy Shapes:

For best cutting results, position fabric on the lengthwise grain (straight of grain) as it goes under the roller.

• To cut one Can Cozy:
  
  • Cut a 6 1/4" x 11 1/4" rectangle out of insulated batting and two pieces of fabric. Sandwich insulated batting between fabric with fabric facing right sides out. Quilt as desired.
  • Lay sandwiched pieces on the die over the blades. Cut one Can Cozy shape.

Die Tips: 

• With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors. 
• Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle.  Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board. 
• 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.
