    I got the ALtos Cutting System recently and learning to get used to it. A lady at a quilt workshop talked about the Accucut and she said that many stores now will precut shapes for a fee.

    Just got mine...can't wait to use it. Since I work in allot of appliques and sqs it will save on ruler slipping and the sq not being quite sq.

    I ordered one at MQX, still waiting for its arrival. I also ordered the Rose of Sharon die, and am saving to order the 7" drunkard path.

    I have the Go! Baby and several dies. I love it! Everything is perfectly cut which means everything fits together. It makes cutting faster, and I have very little fabric waste. There are several sites where dies and machines can be bought at discount and Yahoo has several groups for the Go! It might be helpful to join one or two of the Yahoo groups to learn more about the Go! to see if it's right for you.

    I have the Accuquilt Go Baby and a few dies. I love the 2.5 inch strip die the best so far. But I must say the mats are not very durable. Even with using both sides and flipping them, I will have to replace the mat for the strip die already.
    Next die I will purchase is the Tumbler die.

    I love mine, my quilts have improved tenfold! They are fast and accurate. I bought mine for triangles but have found I really like cutting strips and squares best.
