This is just awesome to hear! I ordered mine yesterday and should have it tomorrow! My rotary cutting accuracy sometimes leaves much to be desired as I've been having some tenderness in my shoulder and elbow. This will be a big help. I'm wondering if it's possible that rheumatoid arthritis could be hereditary. My poor mother suffered terribly with this.

OK...glad to know that I'm NOT the only one. So far I've mostly used the 2.5 inch strip die to 'slice and dice' my solid stash to use in 'modern' quilts. BUT I just ordered the 8.5 inch rag die tonight from Amazon so I'm going to be doing baby flannels SOON.
Is there a 12 step program for us? |
is the accu quilt just for applique?

I just finished cutting out hexagons -- the die has three sizes -- soooo easy! And there is a tumbler one, and well, all sorts. It really makes cutting pieces a snap. If there is a bit left over on the piece I've cut from, I trim off the teeny bits and run it through to cut a smaller piece! Virtually no waste! |

Do these machines cut shapes too? Like hearts, flowers, etc?

lol - me too. Got mine for Christmas - and every time I take it out, there goes a couple of hours. Worth EVERY penny in my humble opinion. Problem is - I'm slowly going broke - just gotta have ONE MORE die......

wish I could afford one! and probably could if JoAnns would let us use a coupon on them . . .just grumbling haha

Cheerio, Sewforless.com has them on sale for $199. I know that is a chunk of money for many of us but it's a good price, I think. Better than the $349 list price.
