In the box with the Accuquilt GO!, these three dies and corresponding cutting mats were included!
Tomorrow, I'm going to cut out enough tumbler patches to make a throw quilt.
I'm just going to go through my totes of 'older' fabrics and mix up the patches!
I also received the beginner die set with the GO!, and have already cut over 1000 4 1/2" squares for my mother-in-law. My whole family took a turn at cranking the handle, they all enjoyed 'helping'.
There was a bit of a learning curve, only in remembering to align the grain with the edge of the patch, since the material and die move through the accuquilt cutter much easier at a slight angle.
The dies shown are the 2 1/2" strip, the tumbler, and the critter (dragonfly, bee, and butterfly) appliques.
I think I will add a few 'critter' appliques randomly on the tumbler blocks, mainly so I can try out the applique die:), what do you think?
