You caused me some alarm because that's probably the first die I want to buy when I finally get my GO cutter that is on back order. I want the 5-1/4" rag die, not the bigger one. Anyhow, I just read the reviews and someone stated that it works well with woven fabric, but not flannel. Woven fabric is what I'll be cutting, so I'm going to buy the rag die. Glad you brought up the subject.
