I love my accuquilt cutter, too. I have made many quilts that I would never have even tried without my accuquilt cutter. Who wants to cut 150 -200 or more 2 1/2" strips or squares with a rotary cutter? I think the strip cutters are the bread and butter of the cutter. You can cut binding, sashing, borders, squares, diamonds and probably more with the strip cutters. I also love the block dies, like the Hunter's Star, or Drunkard's Path, or Winding Ways blocks. Wouldn't even consider making those quilts without my GO cutter. It's so much easier than using templates or speciality rulers, and so much more accurate, too.
