I received the AccuQuilt GO! cutter several years ago for Christmas and confess I haven't used it much. But then during an open sew night a few weeks ago one of the ladies mentioned traveling in a snow storm to get a 2" strip cutter blade for the Bonnie K. Hunter 2017 Mystery (On Ringo Lake). I am also participating in this mystery, my first Bonnie K. Hunter mystery, and had a light bulb moment. Why was I not using my AccuQuilt cutter to cut the 600 pieces for Part 2??? So, I proceeded to the AccuQuilt website and put in my order. And then proceeded to have it mailed to NH....where I used to live. Miraculously, Fedex realized that address did not exist in NH (I had failed to change the zip code) and sent it to MN where it should have gone in the first place. 2 weeks post-shipment (not bad for sending to the wrong state) I have cut the 600 pieces and am working on Part 2; flying geese. Oh, and Bonnie is not only great for patterns but the woman is full of great tips to improve your sewing. For instance, when making flying geese where you use a rectangle and 2 squares you've drawn a line down the center on, I always sewed on the drawn line. Bonnie suggests sewing right next to the line so the drawn line is the fold and omg it is a perfect little flying goose!
