    I finally ordered dies for the Accuquilt Go.

    A couple weeks ago I asked the group what dif people liked for dies. I ended up getting, I think, every one that was suggested and prob 2 more. I thought it was Christmas!

    Half Sq 3" Triangle- $24.00
    Chisels - $25.00
    Isosceles Triangle - $20.00
    Parallelogram - $15.00
    6.5 Tumbler - $19.00
    Diamond - $19.00
    4 1/2 strip $79.99,
    10 x 24 mat free
    6 x 12 cutting mat Free
    shipping was Fed Ex for free.

    Thank you all for the suggestions........ I truly appreciate it! The man I worked with on pricing in Virginia, I can highly recommend. Maybe at some point we can get up an order and get better prices. You never know.

    I wonder if it was the same guy I was working with?? They're also in VA.. Not far from where we used to live when we lived there. :lol:
    I only bought 4 extra dies plus extra cutting mats for all (have to be prepared). :lol:

    Did you say you've gotten it already? If so, do you find you have a lot of "static cling" to your mat? I've even gone so far as to rub a bounce sheet on it and still I have static cling!.

    I bought mine at Nashua Sew and Vac. They gave me 15% off....cheaper than the internet for that one.

    I have some static cling but no big deal. I just pull it off. So much better than using a rotary knife. I also ordered a 2 1/2 inch strip from the internet since it was 50.00 25.00 cheaper than Joanne's fabric store.

    I bought mine off eBay with no shipping. I did the "make an offer" and they came back with a good counteroffer (only $10 more than what I had offered)

    Yeah, it's no big deal, I was just wondering if it was only me :lol: since it's so dry here.

    I order that too, but paid 55 cents more for it!. :lol: I also ordered the tumber, the 5 inch square and the chisel, plus extra mats for each.

    I wish we were all by each other then we could share the dies.

    I am hoping a few of my friends will get one. So far I am the only one that bought one....totally love it. Makes quilting so much easier.

    two weeks...already made two quilts and a third one ready to go...love it....just make sure that you lay out all your squares and make sure you sew the side that is the same.
