Wow, that's an awesome program!

I'm eyeing them too. For cutting blocks & strips I get really good accuracy with my June Tailor rulers and don't mind the cutting process at all (I find it to be a bit therapeutic actually) but I'm finally reaching a point where I'm a confident enough sewer that I want to try taking on some curved piecing. I think for cutting curved pieces I would rather use dies than try to painstakingly follow templates with my rotary blade. I think they'd also be great for rag quilts; I will never again snip one of those by hand!! I think I put about 6 years worth of wear into my joints doing just one quilt.
