Accuquilt has had such great sales lately. Christmastime was unimaginable for sales. I took advantage of my of the great prices. For someone interest or thinking about Accuquilt the sales lately have been great. Just my opinion. Just a happy customer.

I am also a giant fan of Accuquilt. Last year when they had a sale I was able to upgrade from a GO and get the Studio II at 45% off - with free shipping. And then through the holidays I bought a lot of other dies and accessories. Now I still need to organize everything. They have been bought out so they are selling off a lot of the old inventory. I noticed some items have already started to go up in price. So many quilts to make - they are so much easier when I can cut it out with my dies. I need a local quilting buddy to keep me on pace.

I finally made the leap a few weeks ago and purchased an AccuQuilt cutter during the early January sale. I PMd a few members to find out what were their favorite dies or ‘go tos’. The box just arrived and everything is payed out on my dining room table but I haven’t had the nerve to unwrap anything yet. 🤪

We were instructed not to stack them on top of each other. It could cause the bent blades in the die.

The weight of the dies will roll the blade edges. The edges are very thin and sharp so do not stack them on top of each other. I would store them in a tote laying sideways on edge or standing, whichever works best.

I have taken a die apart before to see how it is made. The foam is glued on a wood base that holds the dies in place. The wood base is glued into the green plastic tray which is the housing for the die. The foam and wood base can be glued if they come lose if necessary with any all purpose glue. The foam is to protect the blades, make the die safe to handle, and give a surface for the fabric to stay in place.
