    My husband and I took the tour. Everyone in the company has to make a quilt..from the front desk to the die makers. Our 20 something, retired soccer player has made 5. He was so proud. There were quilts everywhere and I saw the winning quilt barn blocks from 2010 and 2011. Impressive company.

    What a nice tour! I read every employee has to make a quilt. That is a smart move on their part. One time I called about a question I had about one of the Go dies. The customer rep walked over to the Go that was set up and used the same die right then. She saw what I was asking about and answered my question. She said every customer rep had access to all the products right there with them.

    I've heard nothing but good about the company. I love my Go!

    Wow! I am impressed ... all the pieces look to be the same size ... not like mine. I need an AccuQuilt ... my future purchase.
