    Does anyone own a vagabond machine ? Do you like it ? Is it worth the money over the go???


    Thanks

    I own the big shot(non electric version of vagabond) and love it. Its comparable to the baby go so it will only use certain size dies. I'd look at all the quilting dies and see. The dies to me are a little cheaper than the accuquilt ones. If you want the big dies than you need the pro which will take accuquilt dies or the big accuquilt go. Some feel limited by the baby and if you feel that way, you will be limited by the size of the vagabond

    I am waiting for my Vagabond to arrive as we speak. The vagabond will take the accuquilt dies as well as the Sizzix dies .
    I'll keep you posted as soon as I can use it. I have several patterns waiting to cut out so let's hope it works like it says!

    The vagabond is great..but like Dolphyngyrl says..you will be limited on what size dies you can use with it...

    you can go to ihaveanotion dot com and watch her video on using it!

    Thanks ladies. I have the baby go and am not feeling limited quite yet. My mil a fellow quilter is thinking of buying the vagabond. If she likes it I won't lie I'll prob get it .

    @ Blap please let me know how you like yours when you get it.

    @dolphy is the big shot comparable to the go baby or the vagabond?

    I absolutely love my go baby !!!
