you don't have to cut and square up the blocks first, that is the beauty of the quilt cut. I have one and I love it.

it is a wonderful device and the demo video on their website explains how it works. Unfortunately they never go on sale and people who own them will never part with them so you never see them for sale on ebay either. I love mine.

I have one, too, and really like it. I demo'd The Alto in TX, OK and LA quilt shows. Really enjoyed that, but do not do that any more. I am retired.

I've never heard of this but it sure looks easy to use. Too bad I didn't invest in that from the start; I've probably got that much invested with all my cutting mats and rulers.

I did it - I got an Alto QuiltCut!!! Best part is I got the QuiltCut and carrier for $150 from someone that only used hers once and decided to sell it.

That is amazing. But boy is it expensive.

Phyldar: I'd show him the video and then ask him if you can have the machine or the one in storage.
