    Cool quilting dies made by Sissix

    Has anyone tried the Sissix - Fabi quilt block dies? Hobby Lobby carries a good assortment,and you can use your 40 % off coupon.I watched a video on how to use them and really like the idea of cutting 8 pieces @ a time. I have had my Bigz cutter for several years now. Maybe its time to knock the dust off it and try something besides paper crafts with it.

    I have a quilting die for my sizzix but not from hobby lobby but its nice to know you can use the coupons because I have been eyeing those dies for a couple months now. The drunkards path one i have is nice. I think I had posted a photo of my project a couple years ago as it was my first curved piecing

    I have a Accuquilt Studio cutter and have several sizzix quilting (and non-quilting) dies. I just use a shim. Like Dolphyngyrl I also have the drunkard's path dies. The Sizzix versions are on 2 separate dies, making it much easier to cut all the "L" pieces from one color and all the pie shapes from another.
    Note that the Go! and GoBaby will NOT accommodate sizzix dies because they are too thick.

    I wondered if you could use other mfg dies on the studio, great to know as I have the studio. also have the large apple core die, to be able to use coupons would save a lot of money... thanks for sharing
