good for you, you will love it. Best thing I ever got. Had mine a month, love,love,love it

I believe it is an Alto's quilt cut. I have the first version.
I bought mine more than several years ago at a Woodworking show in columbus Ohio.

I would use it more but have no space for it right now.

Enjoy.

Its a Alto quilt cut 2. For cutting fabric in strips triangle diamond all kinds of shapes. I got tired of trying to hold a long ruler straight and cut strips or angles. Talk to some really nice Ladies on here and then reviewed the Alto website & ordered it. Now to go play !!!!!!

Looked up on web site, NICE. but a little pricey for me. Enjoy it looks really cool. Wish my mom had one, she has RA.

It's an Alto Quilt cut 2, its fabulous. I've had mine for a month and its amazing, I can cut a whole quilt in 20 mins or so. Very accurate . Watch their video at www.quiltcut.com/

you can peel the blue film off the ruler.

That is really nice. What a great present.

Awesome!! I LOVE mine!

I just watched the cd and I am in LOVE. My hands will not hurt near as much (worked on a computer for 10hrs a day for 17 of my 25ys @ my last job b-4 I retired) Now I can cut any design I want in about 1/8 of the time. My DH said if it will help your hands go for it. So he ordered it for me. You ladies were right it is Fantastic. Got to go play more just wanted to update b-4 I disappear. Thank You for all the GREAT ADVICE.

I am so happy for you

I got one and wouldn't give it up for nothing! Mine is the first version, and yes, cutting time is cut in half with this puppy! Enjoy it!

0tis 02-14-2011 06:33 PM

Can't wait to hear how you like this - I have considered purchasing one also - so please let us how it goes.

dellareya 02-14-2011 07:08 PM

I love mine. It has made a huge difference in my cutting skills and time. Enjoy!!!!!

butterflies5518 02-14-2011 07:53 PM

I just watched the demo and I am in love! I get so frustrated cutting that it takes forever to start another project! hmmm birthday in about 4 months, oh honey......

chuckbere15 02-15-2011 04:56 AM

I have that. It is great, when cutting you almost need a third hand to steady the far end of the ruler. I haven't tried much fancy cutting yet. I think it was worth the investment.

tarbender30 02-18-2011 08:13 AM

Oh how lucky you are. I hav been drooling over that same thing for over 2 years now. Someday, when my ship comes in, IF I'm not at the Airport, maybe I will be able to get me one.
Have Fun.
