Yes,that's what i was told to do,and they say think of heat and bond as another layer of fabric.

They say to mark around the die cutters with a black marker,Do you?

Merry Christmas!

I read Accuquilt on Facebook every day, and I never saw any ads of buy one get 2 free. Wonder if she meant some other place? Oh well to late now. Jenelle

Connie, I had the same problem the first time. I thought I was going to have to return it because I just couldn't get it to go thru. But after that first time, it was easier.

Have you measured the 5" squares you cut? Are they exactly 5" x 5"? Mine turned out 5" x 4 7/8". Very odd. I put paper between the fabric and the mat to prevent stretching and it helped, but the squares are still 5" x 4 7/8". I thought about writing Accuquilt, but then I thought maybe it is just me. Let me know how your's turned out.

Thanks, Bonnie

Bonnie you have to be careful which way you run the fabric through as far as grain line. The web site and tons of video's explain this. When I cut my chisel die I used junk mail for the paper and I also hold down the mat as it is going through the roller. The chisel die is the only die I've had to use paper though.
Good luck. Jenelle

Black would work but if you get a silver on it will show up much better. You can line your fabric up so much better if they are marked. Jenelle
