You'll get a lot of different responses to this. I watched some Skizzix demos which were a YouTube type thing. It was awhile ago and I'm not sure if I went in through the company's site or just through You Tube. The demo showed folding. I cut mine into the same size as the template and cut several layers at a time to have hardly any waste. I'm sure a search of "how to die cut fabric" will show up some tutes. Maybe someone will come up with a good link.
