I will same you a lot of time. I think that I have about 35ish of the dies myself. I had been working on getting the sizes that are more commonly found in patterns. Here is a website that GO friendly quilt patterns:

I also did get your last email just before I had gone out of town. I'm not ignoring you and will write you back tomorrow. Just playing catch up since getting home.
Yes, I got the tote bag, not sure I will use that but may keep the dust off when I'm not using it, 3 dies free I think and I added a strip die all for about $205....I kind of want a Go, but figured I really couldn't justify it I don't do THAT much cutting yet...we'll see. Cutting down what mess I have into coordinated pieces was the selling point for DH...
Don't ever worry about not getting right back to me, I always figure either you've had an attack (of something, either good or bad)
, you're busy quilting (or doing life)
, or you're off having fun, which includes traveling
.
Dh just decided we're heading off for "Sausagefest" in DeSoto Park near Tampa next weekend, so I need to get my butt in gear and pack for that trip, plus get my SP package packed up since I don't know when we'll be back home...and also find some sausage I guess..maybe I'll leave that part to him
