I just bought the die! I loved how great the QSTs were using the QST die in the size that came with my Qube, so decided to get this smaller size. I admit that this unit in Grassy Creek was my worst; many of them needed to be beaten into submission even as I was doing the quilting. I’m hoping the AQ will make things better this time.

I’m also happy to be using the garnets and hope I have enough.

yep, I just bought the die too. Accuquilt is having another Friday Sale. Don't know if it will come in time, but as I have my fabrics together but haven't even started clue 1, I think I have a bit of catch up stitching to do!

I would like to say I was prescient because I bought this several weeks ago, but the truth is it was just a die from which I thought I would get a lot of use. We have 10 days for this clue, so you may get yours in time!

Shaking my head. When I read this clue, I ran to my die box to see if I had it. Nope, so I ordered it but it is a great sale! Ha, then as I as facetiming one of friends explaining how I added additional marking to dies 1/4 inch away from the blades to aide in lining everything, I pulled out a die to show her the markings. Guess what! It was the die I just order! Anyway, my friend will be getting a die next time she comes to visit. In my defense, I had not had my first cup of coffee yet.

Yep, ran to my dies also and have had this one for some time!!! I already cut one on some scrap fabric to see if it measured correctly and it did! It came out perfect! This will help so much with all the units for this clue!

With all the talk about the die, I'm curious. Does it cut a triangle?

I was intrigued by the info Bonnie gave us today -- backbone of the quilt and no nesting.

If you have the correct dies for this clue or any others it makes a huge difference!

Hey everyone, the die I have is the right size but the bias will be on the long end. That won't work will it?
