Could you use the machine to cut thru a lightweight plastic that could make templates for quilters to use in applique? For instance shamrocks for St Patricks day but in 4 or 5 sizes, x-mas trees in different sizes, maybe bells, mittens, x-mas stockings etc. Halloween templates, ghosts, bats, witches, pumpkins but in different sizes in one package. Hearts for valentines day. I am sure you get my meaning. I usually make my own templates for applique, but something die cut in different sizes that I could by would be great. I prefer a lightweight plastic myself because I usually put a pin in it so I can cut out the fabric. Good luck.
