I love the tumblers...both sizes also the strip dies I have them all. I also love the 6 1/2, and 8 1/2 inch squares and of course the circle die.

Now I need help deciding how to spend my gift certificate! These are die-cutters for fabric. Do you have an Accu-Cutter? Do you like it? What is your favorite die to use? I am thinking a Drunkard's path or maybe the rag-quilt die that pre-cuts all the rag edges. Or maybe a flower template, something that is generally a pain to cut with scissors. What do you suggest?

if you hate to throw out any type of scrap...I would suggest the feathers, flowers and the 3 1/2 tumber.

Congrats! I vote for the rag quilt die. It's a pain to cut all the little snips.

oh....and I haven't used this one yet but can't wait...the Isawsolee triangle - they are so many neat dies...i have alot of them. I hope to beable to use them all. I fell in love with the Tumbler quilts so have made Three of them and then with the scraps used the smaller tumbler die and made an ottamon cover. You will love it...I know I do...worth the money too.
