I have ordered the "Go" and waiting patiently for it to come in. lol I was wondering how you all use the more intricate patterns such as the snowflake. It would really be hard to machine applique. Any input?

Intricate designs like the snowflake may be ones that you would do in a heavy fusible/no-sew and use on a wallhanging or something.

You can go to their web site and they have the die's listed and you can see which ones are for applique and which ones are for piecing. www.accuquilt.com
Hope this helps. Jenelle who loves her GO! cutter

Jenelle, do you do the applique and do you hand or machine? I'm just trying to get a feel for what I will be using it for.

I don't have very many of the applique die cuts, but the ones that I have used I fuse and it depends if it is a wall hanging or used in a quilt. Wall hangings I might just used the heat n bond that you can NOT sew through, if it is for a quilt I have done both Hand and machine. I really don't like hand work so mostly done by machine. Give it a "GO" you will love it. Jenelle
