Love mine. (Sizzix) It works best if you stabalize your fabric first. This can also be done with fuse web if that is the way you're going with your applique. I recommend only 2 layers of fabric at a time though. I know it says it can do more, but I have found that certain fabrics don't cut as well and you end up having to "snip" with your scissors or craft knife. Good Luck.
