Default Rethinking Accuquilt:

Six years ago a received the Accuquilt Go as a retirement gift. I only bought a couple of dies at that time.
I found it a little limited and didn’t use it much. I’m here to say it’s a whole new world with Accuquilt today.
They offer a huge selection and they do have a summer sale going on right now. They show multiple uses for the different dies.
Perhaps it is that I’m getting older and my eyesight and patience isn’t as good as it use to be but I’m in love with some of the new dies. I love the way everything fits together perfectly!!!! I’ve completed an Ohio Star quilt and a Hunter’s Star quilt. So fast, easy and precise. There are tons of You Tube videos and Tutorials. Eleanor Burns does a lot of detailed tutes for this product. They even have a plug in model. (I have the crank one).
Some people complain that there is waste of fabric but I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone to cut with the rotary cutter and either the ruler moves, the fabric moves, I move or maybe the house is moving (yep we live in earthquake country). Whatever the reason I’ve wasted fabric.
If you haven’t looked at Accuquilt in a while you just might want to check it out.
