It gives a little more than a 1/4" this way. Have cut three quilts and have almost finished piecing my second one this way.
See I did not read the fine print on that die...am very disappointed in the design, I think I will write the company....love all the other ones, but now I will definitely read carefully...

I do have the original 3 hexie die...will check it out..

Re: my first GFG that I machine basted......the basting stitch was so fast to do, I chain stitched the whole flower together so those were my hand stitching, go anywhere part...and removing the stitching was as easy as removing the freezer paper...just one pull and out it came....
