I have the studio. I love the strip cutters. I have all the strip dies,
rag dies,apple core,12in block dies,lots of circles for penny rugs and yoyo's,hexagons,triangles,chisel,squares,tumbler,a nd take 5.I guess it depends on what you like to do. I'm planning on getting the alphabet.The take 5 is a fast and easy quilt and you can make it any size with or without borders.So far there has not been a die I don't like.
