How to Store AccuQuilt Dies Correctly

We Carry
by Sara Snuggerud in Sewing Tips

We recently hosted four amazing AccuQuilt events with YouTube star Pam Heller. Along with great AccuQuilt tips, tricks and hacks, our most important take away was the CORRECT way to store AccuQuilt dies.

Up to now we did not realize that storing the AccuQuilt dies incorrectly could damage the blades.

This is NOT the correct way to store AccuQuilt dies.

Dies that are stored laying on top of other dies can damage the blades at the bottom of the stack.

This is the CORRECT way to store AccuQuilt dies.

Isn’t she a beauty!

AccuQuilt dies last the longest when placed like books on a bookshelf. Stand them up on their edges. As for the AccuQuilt cutting mats, it is best to store them laying flat to avoid any warping.

Of course the BEST was to organize AccuQuilt dies is in the new AccuQuilt GO! Quilt Block Center Cutting Cabinet by Horn of America.
