Hey guys ---- I found this really cool die that cuts 1.5" squares, four at a time. It just became available a few weeks ago from Sizzix for $19.99 plus shipping.

Mine came in the mail last Friday and I spent the weekend cutting up my fabric scraps. :-)

I am using the die in a Fiskars Fuse with the adapter plates. You can send about 3-4 layers through at once.
I imagine if you don't use the adapter plate (or used the Accuquilt Go cutting plate instead of the Fiskars cutting plate) you could probably send 6 layers through. I have to do some experimenting on that.

It's really fun. Lay down the scraps until you get 3-4 layers, crank 'er through, and voila! You have 16 1.5" die cut squares. It works even better if you're using original yardage. Simply fold up the fabric into 4 layers and send it through. No fuss, no muss.

I would expect that the die would work in a Big Shot or Accuquilt also, but you'd have to check.

Sorry I don't know how to make this clickable:
