I traced the design lines on my dies, but did not think about including fabric size. Thanks for a great idea!

Some of my newer dies have a black outline around the shape. For lack of a better space, I store my dies in a tall kitchen garbage can (plastic) without the lid on. They stand on end and my can is full!

Great idea! It looks sturdier than the one Accuquilt sells too.

I am looking for storage ideas to put the dies on the wall. I don't like all the clutter on the desk/work area.

Great idea! I wasn't sure if it was okay to store the mats any way other than flat..due to warnings about them warping.. so I love your idea! Here I come Wal-Mart!

Cindi, I did the same thing, I wasnt about to pay all that money for their rack. I found mine at a thrift store. I think I paid $1 for it. But then my DH and I bartered with a client of ours and had this made for my Go! station in my craft room. The drawers here designed just for the dies. Now I know not everyone can barter for things like this, but you would be amazed if you only knew. You could always call a local cabinet shop and ask them if they would be willing to barter for a lap quilt for their wife for Christmas. They just might take you up on it.

I am in the market for the Accuquilt cutter...do you use yours a whole lot or just a bit? Do you think it is a good investment? Thank you

Singer, I have both the Go! Baby and the Go!, I do not use it every day, however, I really do love the idea that I can just go to my Accuquilt station and work on a project when I get an idea. It makes things so much easier, I bought my Go! Baby from either HSN or QVC. I think it was HSN, I was able to get it on payment plan, but they shipped it right away. Good luck!

Great idea! I have the big shot pro but still have some Go dies and of course some sizzix dies. I've been looking for storage solutions.
