[QUOTE= Are you attracted to specific patterns or do you find yourself cutting the same shape over & over those are the dies you should get first.[/QUOTE]
The answer is "yes"----but I think I would cut certain shapes over and over again as I'm now more into Modern geometric quilts. |
Love the applique dies! The snowflakes and holiday dies cut those intricate shapes so perfect. Plus I have the EMB designs for them too. Did you see the cute owl and patterns to make them into animals? Fun!
I just used the small tumbler die to make the flag wall hanging. |
I use mine to help me keep control of small scraps. So I use the smaller squares 2, 2.5 and 3" a lot.

I have a Go Baby and use the 5" square and the "small value set" dies the most. Haven't bought any of the applique dies yet, but I love the flower and stem one (Edyta Sitar). I also see that Accuquilt has a Northwoods die with a moose and bear. I'll have to check this one out.

Smaller tumbler, triangles - love having no dog ears to trim!
2.5" strip - rotary cutting is becoming more difficult due to shoulder pain, cutting a lot of strips is easier with the Go! I'm concerned about needing to upgrade to the electric one before long... That's ridiculously expensive! |
