    Okay, I have made my packs with 55 candies so in case there might me a brain fart when I put them together and got a duplicate. But nothing intentional. Can't wait to see the swoon

    I would like more info on the go-cutter who ever has one wants to share....how do you use them. How many squares does it cut at one time. How much does it cost and where do you find one.

    Sounds like fun and who doesn't like a new toy

    I'm thinking the same exact thing... especially when they cut so accurately!

    I have the Big Go by Accuquilt. It is electric. Go to their website and check it out. Also youtube video just google youtube accuquilt. The Go and dies usually do not go on sale I found it best just to subscribe to their website and once in a while they will have sales. Joanns etc will not give any discounts coupons will not work at retailers, that's why I just deal with Accuquilt. I bought the 2-1/2" strip cutter, I cut the strips then I lay the strips crosswise to get the 2-1/2" squares! I bought the smaller die that just cuts 2-1/2" squares but I don't like it as well as the strip cutter. You can cut so many in such a short period of time. You can cut up to 6 layers of fabric! I usually just cut 4. But I really recommend you check out all the youtube videos. If any of you have Netflex you can scroll down and there is a youtube it's really nice to watch on the big screen! Hope this give a little help in your search. Oh they advertise that the cutters never dull that was a biggie for me those rotary cutter blades get expensive and I swear they don't make them like they use to I just don't think they stay sharp all that long. Happy piecing!

    Thanks for the info Daisy Dew. I will go to the website and check it out. I am a scrapbooker as well as quilter so I am not sure if I can justify a big expense like an Accuquilt cutter. Just dreaming!

    Thanks for sending out the address, Barb. I put Jaba's candy in the mail this morning. I am going swing by the post office next week and buy 70 cent stamps for the rest of the May crew.
