How to Die Cut 2-Color Bear’s Paw Quilt Blocks:

For best cutting results, position fabric on the lengthwise grain (straight of grain) as it goes under the roller. For 2-color block, cut 4 layers of 1 fabric color, then cut 4 layers of a contrasting color. 

  • Fabric Color 1: Cut one 10 3/4" x width of fabric (WOF) strips. Fanfold four layers into 5" widths. Sub cut four A shapes and 16 B shapes. Cut one 3" x 3" square. Sub cut into one C shape. 
  • Fabric Color 2: Cut one 15 1/4" x width of fabric (WOF) strips. Fanfold four layers into 3 1/4" widths. Sub cut 16 B shapes, four C shapes and four D shapes.

Die Tips: 

  • With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors. 
  • Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle.  Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board. 
  • Use good quality fabric to reduce fabric stretch. 
  • It's always a good idea to test cut one shape before cutting many shapes to ensure fabric orientation is correct.
