Sizzix woven heart die

[Deefersmum]

Bought this die cause I thought it was cute and would be easy to put together watching the telly or whatever BUT what a struggle! Perhaps it's just me Has anyone else bought it and how did you get on? At this rate, it's going on Ebay......

Not got it Deefy but is this any help? https://www.sizzix.co.uk/17657/woven-heart If you click onto the picture it takes you through about 7 steps (right arrow) I think it looks complicated but maybe it isn't as bad as it looks - all the bits of the cut pieces are numbered.

I've been making these hearts for years with primary school children - without any dies. They're so easy to measure and cut and the children manage to slot them without many problems. I wonder why this die is tricky.

I am useless at the weaving type dies. Have a Sue Wilson one, had one go and gave up. My hands just won't do it anymore. It's like knitting with spaghetti !

I looked at some vids for making the woven hearts from scratch and I think the main difference is they are a lot bigger. The problem with the die is that it is quite small and just gets tighter and tighter the further you go.
