I love my Cameo. I use it for cutting applique shapes for machine embroidery designs. I made a Happy Daisy quilt after seeing one here on the board. I applied Heat N Bond Lite to the back of the fabric before cutting it. I created the embroidery design from the single leaf shape. Here is a great tutorial on how to get the machine embroidery design shape into the Cameo
