I use the rag quilt Go die. no cutting, even the snipping is done for me. It's great for a fast scrappy quilt. The regular square dies save tons of time when doing rag quilts. I'm making the Santa rag quilt and have to piece most of the blocks. I put the pieced blocks on the die and let the die snip it for me. (I use paper over the die and it stops all the thread ravels from getting in the die.)
