Here is a picture of a Christmas Circle quiltI made using the circle die and her machine embroidery designs. Much easier to use the embroidery machine than try to manuever a quilt using free motion or just regular applique stitches to stitch around those circles. I used free motion to quilt around those circles. The results are less than ideal, to say the least. But it is my quilt and I snuggle under it at Christmas.
If you look under the shop/embroidery section of the accuquilt site, you will find a lot of embroidery designs for the dies. I have plans to do an orange peel quilt using the die and the machine embroidery designs.
