Good idea. I'm headed to Wal-Mart.

Just be careful how you stack your dies in the racks. If you go to www.Lovebugstudios.com
Ebony Love had a few photos on what happens when they get stacked together too closely. Not a very pretty sight. She also wrote a book "The Big Little Book of Fabric Die Cutting Tips", on choosing, buying and how to use your die cutting machines to get the most out of the dies and use the least amount of materials. I actually got to meet her at the International Quilting Market here in Portland, Oregon in May. She is awesome! And funny!!! Go to her site and you will not be disappointed. :D

Look as if I need to make a trip to Wal-Mart sooner than I planned!

Thanks for all the tips. The Big Little Book....arrived yesterday. Haven't had time to look. Too busy collecting dies.

Wow Cindi, GREAT idea about writing on the dies! I've had mine for a while and haven't even done the outlining yet... now I will write the size on them too! The people on this board are so smart.... I love it here.

Writing on the dies is also recommended by Ebony Love (www.lovebugstudios.com) as someone else already mentioned. She has several videos and a book that I have. I am currently storing my dies on end in a storage bin that I already had.

Thanks for the Love Bug's link. I'd never heard of her before! I've added her to my reader list :)
