I agree. I don't think the dies are that expensive -Im all for free but thats not reasonable i know.. lol.. Im glad they are sturdy and can handle being used hundreds and hundreds times over.. I Know mine sure get quite the use..

I love mine. My quilts are so much better with the more accurate and faster cutting. I use mostly strips, triangles, and squares and can't imagine going back to just rotary cutting. Perfect gift!

OK. Nine pages later, I'm sold. I'm going on a hunt for the right one! At the right price.

Amazon has the dies that are more reasonable than the Accuquilt website. I have purchased several and they are the same quality. I don't know how they can sell them cheaper, but glad they do.

I see that some think it wastes fabric. Once you learn to use it, there is not much fabric waste. It's nice to see one demonstrated. I bought mine then went to a quilt show and found there are lots of things you can do with the strips that I didn't know you could do.

I was looking them up yesterday and HSN has them for about $150 less than most other places including www.amazon.com . I've actually had it on my HSN wishlist for at least a year lol! Good luck! If you purchase one please let us know where and for how much.
