Found out that my design won 2nd place in AccuQuilt's Barn Quilt Design contest!! The prize is a $250 gift card for their product, and they'll paint a 6-ft. block of my design on the side of their headquarters in Nebraska. Cool!!

Now I need help deciding how to spend my gift certificate! These are die-cutters for fabric. Do you have an Accu-Cutter? Do you like it? What is your favorite die to use? I am thinking a Drunkard's path or maybe the rag-quilt die that pre-cuts all the rag edges. Or maybe a flower template, something that is generally a pain to cut with scissors. What do you suggest?

Luck Lady, Good job. I don't have a Accuquilt cutter. I have the Alto's QuiltCut2, love it. I bought it because I normally just cut straight and angle cuts and didn't want to buy alot of dies. Have fun shopping.

Have one still sitting in box because it arrived as we were leaving for vacation...My came with many bonus dies including Druckard Path, 4 inch, 2 1/2, 5inch,and half triangles...I went out with my joann's coupons and decided I get Critters since that would be great for applique quilts, one less thing I would have to cut by hand...But it was a hard decision between that and the Balt flower die...Next time...Get what you'd use the most of...Some new ones out cat/dogs etc...
