Default Accucut Double Wedding Ring set

Hi everyone. Has anyone used the Accucut Double Wedding Ring set dies? Did the piecing go easily?
Toying with asking for this from Santa. I have the Winding Ways die and must say that the curved pieces do go together very easily and I've used it more than I thought, but the DWR is pricey and it would be nice to get some feedback.
Thanks!

The only problems is how useful will they be after you finish a quilt?? I still have my John Flynn templates because after I made one, I am not going to make another.

i don't know if the piecing was any easier having used the accuquilt DWR dies, but they were worth every penny because of the time and effort saved on cutting.

to me, cutting the pieces was more time-efficient because the whole process was faster than paper piecing would have been.

i happen to love the DWR, so already have two quilts in the works. i'm still piecing one, and still quilting another.
i let my friend use the cutter and dies so she could make one of her own.

I have used the DWR Go dies to make a long table runner. But it would be worth the cost to me if I only made a potholder.

I have the die - haven't used it yet but it was on sale, they didn't charge me any sales tax and shipping was free so I couldn't pass it up. I hope to make one next year. My friend is going to use it to make a quilt for her daughter and a table runner for her mom. So it is worth it for me.
