    LOL, i saw it mentioned in another forum, and i just had to try it...I took a reg. big shot die and ran it thru with fabric and low and behold it WORKED...I put 4 layers of fabric in it and i got 4 layers of flowers (sizzix die i i used).

    I don't know why i never thought of it, since i have the GO, but i'm pretty excited LOL

    You can actually use up to 8 layers of fabric with the Big Shot or the Cuttlebug and the Sizzix dies. Makes quick work of a quilt!

    I have both the Big Shot and the Westminster/Sizzix Big Shot Pro. I love them both! They cut through anything! I've used my GO dies in there many times (did the rag block) plus I've done the strips for my binding.. they're great machines.. :)
