Rummage sale score!
 
Local Catholic Church has an annual Rummage Sale that is HUGE! I found an Altos Quilt Cut for $40.00. Brought it home and it seems like it was necer used. It looks like an older version, but does all the same things. Can't wait to try it out.

Great find! That seems to be a really cool tool for cutting!

Good for you! Great price, too. I also have the older one and use it constantly! Enjoy!

Fantastic! I had to do a search and find out what it was that you purchased. I am drooling with jealousy! LOL. Congrats on your wonderful find and have a great time with it. It now holds first place on my Wish List.

I am thinking of using it to make the Irish chain that Jenny Doan from Missouri Star just did a new tutorial on. Looks so fun

I have one and I love it however I feel like I have to constantly check my size when using the Quick Cut guide. It seems to be off about 1/8 of in inch when on the cutting guide. But when I put it on a flat surface it measures a perfect 90* angle.

I have one and love it! Congrats on your find.

I love mine too, it is all I use for cutting fabric any more.

OMG - you really scored - what a deal. I bought mine with the travel case, second hand but used only once and I paid $150 - I thought I was getting a good deal!

It's all about being in the right place at the right time!

I bought one a couple of years ago, and wouldn't be without it.

DeniseP 08-06-2012 10:44 AM

That's a deal!

Jim's Gem 08-06-2012 10:55 AM

What a great find!!!! I have been thinking about getting one of those, someday...

quiltingcandy 08-06-2012 11:09 AM

That's a great find! It wouldn't surprise me if it was never used. People buy them thinking they are going to use it all the time and then think twice about getting it out and setting it up. They could be rather intimidating the first few times.

Hey good for you!! Good shopping!!

You will love it! The best accessory a quilter can have in my honest opinion.
