I usually cut 4 to 8 layers, depending on the fabric. Denim is hard to cut with more than one layer with the rag quilt die. I do have threads to snip when I remove the square. But, there are many cuts (blades) on that die. I clean out the die every few cuts. I love my Accuquilt Go.

I still want to see what you have made with the pieces cut with the Go. :)

I was storing the dies in a art bin the stands up but now I use a metal file rack holder that you can get at an office store like staples. Works great and looks like the ones that they sell on the accuquilt store.

They are thicker than the Go dies an d just a bit to small to use the wire rack holder.
