The hex die is great for cutting paper hexes for English paper piecing. The circle for yo yos. I keep a list of the regular cost of the dies and when I find a sale I can tell if it's a great sale or just a little sale. I have almost all the dies for the Go. I seldom have to cut fabric for a quilt pattern.

I just didn't see a need before. But trying to hand "nip" seams for rag quilts is about to drive me nuts.

I do fairly simple quilts. A nice big square block to cut uniform pieces for then uniform HST might be my next purchase.

Thanks for the encouragement. And I'm sure "Accuquilt" appreciates your post, too.
