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.
