For asymmetrical shapes, place fabric pattern side up if you want the shape to look exactly like the shape on the die.

- A dream Review by Judith

Overall Rating The Accuquilt cutter is a dream come true. I feel like I crossed over into a whole new league of quilters. There are so many Accuquilt fans and quilt groups out there. We have quilt alongs, applique swaps and share pattern ideas with the dies. With my arthritis acting up, this is the safest and easiest way to cut fabric! I loved it so much, I bought my sister one for her birthday. She is a true fan now, too!

- Excellent product Review by denise

Overall Rating This product improves the quality of my quilts by allowing such accuracy every time! I use a longarm machine to quilt and I find that my computerized stitching patterns stay on an even line because my blocks line up perfectly. Thank you Accuquilt for this product!!!

- Saves me so much time Review by KAREN
-
Overall Rating I have had my GO since it first came out and using it saves me so much cutting time. I use a lot of strips (2 1/2" and 1 1/2") so I pull my fabrics and cut them for my projects. I also use them to cut my scraps after a project is finished.

- I am in LOVE with "Little Gusto" ! Review by Georgene
-
Overall Rating I hate cutting with scissors. I hate cutting with a rotary cutter even more. I don't cut well with either method. I have a little tremor in my hands sometimes, so I am not always 100% accurate with scissors. I am waiting to have knee replacement, so I can't stand for very long to cut well using a rotary cutter. And now none of that matters, because "Little Gusto" is 100% accurate. He has great strength and greater endurance. He is amazing, and he has changed my quilting life!

Overall Rating I dreamt about owning a GO for a year, finally made the investment and love, love, love it ! GO has taken my quilting to a new level. Sew accurate and saves hours of cutting time. Sew much easier on my back . Recently entered a quilt show and won my first ribbon. WOW!!! Greatest think to happen to quilting since the rotary cutter. If grandma could see me now.
