Sunday Progress Report

  • Two tops quilted
  • Bindings made and machine stitched to two quilts
  • Green/black/white boxed squares started
  • Continued to make QAYG blocks for HeartStrings
  • 3 quilts washed; 3 quilts mailed for donation

No fabric purchased but I did buy both a small die cutting machine and a new sewing machine along with my relatively new GO Cutter purchased a few weeks ago, you can see I've been on an equipment spree but they'll all help me use stash!

How do you like the die cutting machine? I've been thinking of getting one and I cant decide! What kind did you buy?

I just made this one; I have a little more time on my hands and if I start to quilt more often, I will absolutely have to get some more equipment.

Why did you get the die cutter? More variety than the GO cutter?

With all that new equip you should be powering through your stash!

That sizzix cutter sounds great!! I have been pondering some kind of die cutter but don't know what to get. There are so many between that Cricut thing (the cartridges are a price though), the xylon (spelling?) which costs more but you can design your own stuff on the computer, the accucut like you have and now this!! I guess I have to really figure out what I want to use it for.

Equipment spending spree is a good thing, ya don't do it everyday or even every year! And you'll be even more productive (if that's possible)

I think you made a good purchase - hope you enjoy it.
