    Default Christmas Gift!

    Hope everyone had a safe, healthy Christmas.
    I have to share part of mine with you.
    I had been looking at the Accu-cutter Baby Go for some time and my husband mentioned it to our kids when they asked what they might get me.
    They were happy with his suggestion and purchased it.
    Then my DH bought me 2 different size cutting mats and some dies to go with it as well as a gift card from my local Janome dealer who carries the die.
    I am anxious to use it for cutting all those 2 1/2 strips I find I use quite often.
    Have a great New Year and stay safe if the storms of all kinds are affecting your area.
    We are getting snow and could get up to 16".

    Those AccuQuiiltGo dies are great to have. Those strip dies are so useful....you can turn the strips the other way around and cut perfect squares! I have sewn two strips together and then cut them the other way so that I could make perfect 4-patches...same with three strips for 9 patches. You have a very nice family looking out for you!

    Hope your snowfall stops very soon! We got only two inches the night before Christmas but it is very COLD! Stay warm.

    Been looking at those Cutters online. They are enticing.

    Wish we'd have a good wet snow! We also had ice, frigid temps and blizzard winds the 24-25th. Am so thankful to be home and warm. We're going to get with family the 30th. After all Christmas is in one's heart.

    I have one and LOVE it! Be sure to check on ebay when you want more dies, you can usually find them for less than 1/2 price. Enjoy

    I've been thinking about getting one, also. You are so lucky. I'm so happy for you. Maybe on my birthday!!! I can hope! But I'll probably have to settle for a GoBaby.

    Thanks for the suggestion about turning the strips into squares.
