Thanks so much for all your advice and suggestions. It really helps to see what others do. I currently don't belong to a guild or have any buddies to quilt with, as we just recently moved into the neighborhood. However that is a great suggestion, AliKat.

Do the 6 sets of dies you are asking about come with your machine purchase, or are you purchasing them in addition to the Accuquilt cutting machine?

I really like the dies with rounded edges and odd shapes. Things that are slightly more challenging to cut by hand.
The large drunkards path is very good-it has a gently rounded edge and a notch on both pieces for easy matching. Triangles are nice because the corners are already cut off. The 2 I want to get are the Home and Alex Anderson's die set-basket and star. My suggestion is to look at the types of quilts you enjoy making, are there any shapes that are consistant in all of them? |
Each die is sold separately... try ebay, amazon usually you can find great deals.. I just get them from the accuquilt website or my lqs..

I have bought some from Nancy's Notions. Discounted prices and if you get her catalogue it has frequent free shipping. Plus, the customer service is wonderful.
