Obsessed with My New Accuquilt Go!
Some weeks ago I asked if the Accuquilt Go! was worth it. Predictably, there were opinions on both sides of the question. Well. I want to resoundingly say, YES! I love it!
Although I have a lot on my plate today and really should be doing other things ... I am obsessively and merrily slicing and dicing away. If someone doesn't stop me soon, I might actually progress through my entire stash!
Does anyone else need to be told through a megaphone, "STEP AWAY FROM THE ACCUQUILT AND NO ONE GETS HURT."

I certainly know what you are talking about. There's something really satisfying cranking those shapes out. I have the Studio. I actually bought it over 15 years ago when it was first introduced at Accucut in the days before accuquilt. I make invitations, party favors etc. and have hundreds and hundreds (and hundreds) of dies. I've been into quilting the last 2 years and love it for quilting.

I'm so happy for you. When I got mine I had this bag of scraps that I had gotten years ago and I used the die that had multiple shapes on it and cut squares from 1in up to 5in. I was on a roll. I put them into bins and felt so relieved to have them out of that bag and could see what was there. I do a lot of applique and especially for that it's great to have those squares to go to. Enjoy.

I think that when I am done with my current batch of pastels, I will finally pull out the fabric I purchased for bedroom quilts and start cutting. Then ... hahaha ... maybe I will sew them together! Who knows?
