My Go is as important as my sewing machine to me. I haven't found a quilt pattern that I can't adapt to a die size. I use the 6 1/2" strip die a lot for borders. I scour the web for shops selling out the Go dies. Just last month one site was selling them for 50% off. The sale was posted in Links and Resources section. I crank the Go with it sitting low almost to my hips so I don't raise my arm, just turn at the elbow. That makes a big difference. My Go is well used so turning it is smooth and easy.
