AcuQuilt
Good afternoon everyone. Hope your Sunday has been a good one. I am wondering if anybody has a acuquilt and does it work for cutting quilt blocks? I have money from birthdays and Mothers Day thought maybe I'd get one. I don't know that I understand the machine and how it works. Thank you.

Do you mean the Accuquilt go? It works. I sold mine because it was too limiting. If you mean the Accuquilt Studio it's not limiting. Once you buy the machine you still have to buy dies for each shape you want to cut.

I have one and just recently placed a pre order for the electric Accuquilt Go. I would suggest you go to YouTube website and search for Accuquilt videos. There are three different Accuquilt, the Studio which is the largest for mass cuttings, The Go for home use and the Go Baby which is for the smaller dies. You have to buy the dies you want and use a cutting mat which wears out over time. I love my Go.

I have the sizzix pro and use the accuquilt go dies with it. I have cut several 2" squares today and it makes it so much faster. The die has 6 squares on it and you can cut 6 layers at a time. I am using scraps today.

I bought the accuquilt go. I don't have very many dies, but the cut is perfect on each one. It helps with accuracy and soothes the arthritis in my hand. It is extremely easy to use. I'm happy with it.

If you are wanting to do a double wedding ring, check out Cheryl Phillips the Rings that Bind book. It is so easy, looks like a traditional wedding ring and there is no curved piecing. there is a video on Kaye Woods youtube about it. its fantastic.
I do have the Accuquilt Go and love it. Especially for cutting strips. its great.
