Hi all,
I am the proud owner of a Studio!

http://www.accuquilt.com/Studio-Videos-W52C505.aspx

Above link is a video of Alex A. and Ricky T. raving about it. I got it on sale for $476.00, and I see it is back to $595.00.

From a member of "The Quilting Board" I bought some rag dies. Here's what I have:

*8 1/2 X 5 1/2 with a batting die (rectangle)
*8 1/2 square with a batting die
*5 1/4 square with a batting die
*Jumbo cut flower shape 5 X 5 1/4....coordinates with the 8 1/2 inch square

even the flower has shag already cut! plus a small center flower.

Then I have from eBay purchased at GREAT savings:

*5 inch squares cutting die with 6 squares(6 at once! with 10 layers? wow!)
*Another 5 inch squares die with 4 at a time.
*A batting squares cutter with 4 at a time (6 1/2 inch squares coordinate with the 8 1/2 inch die)
*AccuQuilt Studio Chisel Die Item 50148

Next I'll get the Chisel idea book:

*The 2 1/2 inch strip cutter, cuts 5 at a time (but with 10 layers....!!?)

That's it so far. I will add more stuff when I get my tax return! I'm setting it up at our Local Quilt Store...Coulee Quilts. And try it out for a year cutting for others, making up some kits and buying more dies after I see what people want. I am watching the sales and eBay closely because the dies are VERY high priced.
What size & or shape would you want cut if you could have it cut easily like this?

I now have an Aqququilt Go cutter, so will be cutting my own.Triangles & strips were 1st on my list.Next is the chisel die.


"What size & or shape would you want cut if you could have it cut easily like this?"

I guess I should say....I'm not soliciting but wondering what the most popular dies are so I'll know what to buy. I have a mile long wish list but will have to go with what people want first and if it is profitable then I'll buy more dies.
SO FUN!

I would love to own a Studio. I think the Arabesque dies are beautiful. Are you going to package up different designs and sell them?

magpiefeather

I may do that...I have so many I would need to purchase....but that's a great idea. Unless I can't for copyright reasons since it is a design licensed by the designer. The others, like hearts, butterflies etc...there doesn't seem to be a problem selling those.

I got one too! I've been cutting my fat quarter stash for 2 days. I LOVE it!

I would love to have one of those. They sound like they are so cool. I was thinking of the "GO" someday. Would sure help in my own cutting since my hands are getting worse. Good luck selling your pre-cuts. I'm sure alot of people will love them.

i have the accuquilt studio and use my 1 1/2, 2, 2 1/2, 3 1/2 and 4 1/2 strip dies the most. i have the 12" and 8" block set, but i don't use it as much as i thought i would. some dies are still wrapped and i've had them for two years. i did go through a phase with my tumbler die but now i use my take 5 die a lot. i have the hearts and flowers for applique but not patient enough to do applique.
i'm always looking to add more to my inventory!

Thanks Natalie,
I am so happy to have one! And I ordered the 3 inch cutter yesterday! The trays are huge and heavy duty...I just received the 2 1/2 inch cutter and the accessories today.
How long have you had your GO?
