Well, I just posted my first pieces that I have done. I cannot believe how much I am enjoying the foundation piecing. I am using Ricky Tim's Stable Stuff. I am excited by how nicely it goes together once you get the piecing done. Is anyone else doing this without the Accuquilt Go? I had no trouble tracing the circles for this month's pattern, but I am not looking forward to the more complex applique blocks coming up. I just haven't decided to buy or not to buy.
Kathi, I debated about buying the AccuQuilt templates and cut everything out by hand, very tedious, and not very accurate. I happened to go to Quilt in a Day site (Eleanor Burns) to browse and on her Shopping site she had a Go! Baby! for approx $70-$75 (retail is going for $129) and they also had the 2 dies of Heather Feather on sale also, I don't remember the cost. Plus Sarah has the full embroidery for the dies on her site for the Sedona Star. I purchased the full embroidery and am extremely pleased with the design. I don't know if Sarah is still offering it or not but she had indicated that anyone that bought all of the embroidery designs would get a "special gift" from her. I received mine a couple of weeks ago and it is two more quilt designs. If you are a machine embroiderer I would suggest the investment. They can be used and manipulated for other projects, etc.
