I posted above that I have the
Sizzix Big Pro. I prefer the Go to use with the Go dies. The Sizzix needs an adapter for most dies. If you have trouble turning the crank, the Vagabond is an electric die cut machine. Most die cut machine dies are not made for fabric cutting. The Accuquilt dies are for fabric and seems to cut the fabric much better. Accuquilt has give aways every week on their facebook page. Many posters here have posted they won one!

I have the AccuQuilt Studio, which I share with my daughter. Couldn't quilt without it. I can cut 10 layers of fabric with one die, and since I have shoulder problems, it is a real pleasure to use. It has more than paid for itself.

You should know that the cutter and dies are available for much reduced prices at places other than Accuquilt. Let me know if you want specifics.

I second that thought! Maybe you gals who don't like yours should try to sell them on the board. I'm sure there'd be a bit of interest. I know I would seriously consider buying a "gently" used one! Just a thought....
