    Joanns will be having a sale on the 'Go' on Nov 25 & 26. They will go on sale for $199.99. At least in my area, (New Hampshire) I'll bet the store will be mobbed that day. Hope J will have stocked a lot of them. I'm even interested cuz I have a very hard time cutting fabric. (Cant stand up for more than a couple of minutes.) If I put the 'Go' on something a little lower than the table I work on, maybe I'll have enough leverage to turn the handle and get nice pieces and strips for a change! Also they are selling the 'Go' accessories for 25% off!!!!!!!

    Be sure to get there early. I went last year and the cutting line went all the way around the store. After about a half hour of not really moving I left. Or if you do go - try not to get the fabric.

    Maybe you can order it online during the sale. So many retailers have the same sales online during Black Friday. I love my Go Cutter and use the 2 1/2 inch strip die and the 5 inch square die the most.

    Good luck

    I have most of not all dies... My favorite is the Tumblers and the 2x2, & rectangle...

    make sure you have back up mats as they wear out if you use it as often as I do..

    Just order all of them as you find one on sale. I have about every Go die there is. Some I haven't opened yet but they were on clearance or a great sale. I have dozens of mats in my stash also bought on a great sale if I need them or not. Right now my favorite die is the 6 1/2" HST. I have hundreds of them cut for all kinds of quilt patterns.

    I bought the 2 1/2 inch also. I think I will get the one smaller too.

    I have been considering the Go cutter but I do have a question regarding the Baby Go. Do you know which dies cannot be used on the Baby? My quilt space is rather small (ok it's cluttered) and I think the Go Baby would fit better. Plus we RV and I would like to take it with me and space is a real premium there. I can cut my own strips. Thanks for your expert opinions on this.
