If you had a choice which one would you get??????? :roll:
I also looked at the AccuQuilt, but hated the idea of being 'confined' to what dies they made/I had. And there seems to be SSSOOOO much wasted fabric. With the QuiltCut you are free to cut ANYTHING. I expecially like it now that I have EQ7. There are a lot of patterns out there - and that I create - that are not 'standard' sized pieces - i.e. 2" triangle but I need 2 3/8" triangle. And you can fussy cut with QuiltCut and not with the AccuQuilt.

I think for the AccuQuilt to be valuable is if you are producing quilt kits, but it seem to make sense to have to have GOBS of different dies available. And where would you store them? I would rather store fabrics.
