The lovely Carolyn from AccuQuilt emailed me recently to say what a fan her company was of my blog. Can you believe that? I was totally shocked and surprised to see a message from them in my inbox. I've been enthusiastic of their machine since it was released. Needless to say, her message made my day.
I immediately called Carolyn as the note requested and boy did I get some great news for you!
Carolyn wants to offer me a GO! Cutter to GIVE AWAY to my readers! Isn't that great?!?!
I love my AccuQuilt cutter and was so happy to hear that I get the chance to give one away to you guys. The GO! is a great tool I feel every quilter should have in their studio arsenal. Whether you are looking for something new to spark interest in your hobby again or don't have a lot of time to spend quilting, the GO! is a universal solution great for busy quilters and crafters.
The majority of problems with my quilting seem to develop around cutting mistakes. The GO! helps me by creating accurate and consistent cuts every time. I can cut up to 6 layers of fabric at a time and cut an entire quilt 90% faster than using a rotary cutter!
In a few weeks I'm going to show you how I made a quilt using my AccuQuilt GO! machine and give one away right here on my blog to one lucky reader! Exciting, right? Well, I'll also be giving away prize packs of fabric and notions that were donated by my readers too! There will be one grand prize winner (the lucky duck) for the GO! cutter and many runners up. How exciting!
I'll leave you with this AccuQuilt video explaining how easy it is to use their revolutionary machine.
Happy quilting,

I am soooo excited at your offering a chance to win a Go! My mother wants me to win one (for her). She is almost 80 and loves quilting. Guess have to wait for a few weeks to enter.
That is just so wonderful, I too love reading your blog and enjoy the info you give.
The Go cutter has been on my list and I have seen one here on Australia and it would be a dream to own one.
There is so much fabric in my cupboards and it would mean quick accurate cutting and I could finish some more quilts and give some more away. Nothing like seeing a happy smile when you give a quilt.
Happy stitching

WOW congratulations! How fun is that! Can't wait to see what you create :-)
I have had my eye on one of those for the longest time! You said you had something big up your sleeve and you were not kidding!

I have been wondering if those were useful or not. I have so many gadgets and things that I buy and never use or they don't work like i think they will...I was hoping to hear good things about these!
Congrats!!! Can't wait to read part two!!

Oh wow! I was so excited to find your blog about a week ago, and now this really neat giveaway . . . just wow. :)
What an exciting giveaway! I've seen this at Joann's and got to play with it a bit. NO money in the budget for it yet....not with my DD heading to college in the fall, but a girl can dream:)
I'm anxious to see your quilt and hear more about this giveaway!
Every time I go to Joanns I eye the display of these cutters and always wondered about the effectiveness. Sounds like they work pretty good, what a great giveaway!
I was also wondering how well it really works for the price, but I guess you will prove us wrong! Go Ryan!!
Looking forward to all your posts regarding the accuquilt cutter! It looks like a fabulous piece of kit!
This is the most amazing product! I'm always hesitant to start a new quilting project because I HATE cutting fabric out. Always inspired, but really have to d-r-a-g myself to do the cutting.
Great blog by the way! I LOVE LOVE LOVE your circle pillow. It has made it's way to the top of my list!
How exciting to be chosen like that. Looking forward to seeing what you make.
Congrats! What an honor for you :)
I have been admiring this and have heard such great things...I HATE cutting :) Would love to get my hands on one!
That is an AWESOME giveaway! I would love, love, love to have an Accuquilt GO! Super cool!
I agree with you most of my inaccuracies come from cutting, the rest is 1/4" seam allowance.
Congrat. on your accuquilt Go give away

I'll throw my hat in the ring. I have been reading about the GO and would love to own one but money is tight. Looks like a great tool and I know whoever wins it will like itl
That's such an awesome prize you're giving away.
I can't wait... I am brand spankin' new to quilting and I would love to play!
How fun!
Ryan, Never heard of a "Go", looks like it would really help out with cuttin'. Thank you for giving us a chance to "play" with one!
Oh Please let me be the Lucky Duck who wins the Go super cutting machine !!!
Deb
Ain't you popular?? I feel lame to be the last person in the world to find your blog. But I came upon it -eventually-, so I'm sort of cool, right?
How wonderful to be selected to host a GO! giveaway! Have fun with this little project.
What an exciting giveaway! I'd love to have a GO! Cutting is the part of quilting I like least!
OH my goodness I've been dying to get a GO! but it's hard make myself spend money on it when there is so much fantastic material to purchase. Pick me :)
I can't wait for this giveaway! I've wanted one of these sooo bad but just can't spend the money right now. I will be waiting every day for you to start this one!=)
I woul love a chance to win one!!!!
What a great give-away. I love your blog. My husband doesnt quilt, but he is so supportive of my addiction...I mean hobby LOL. He is trying to build me a quilt frame for machine quilting. Now if he could only build me a little machine like the cutter......hmm
Sounds wonderful, I have never seen it, but it looks impressive, never seen it here in Belgium.
I love this blog!!! ^-^
I just read it and I plan on taking up studies in fabric design!!! Thanks so much for making this blog!!! It's wonderful and well designed!!! ^-^
Anxiously awaiting the other part of this !!!!! been debating one .....

I am a new quilter and I could use one.
Thank you for such a wonderful giveaway, I really want one.
I really really really want an AccuQuilt! Please send it my way.
This is very exciting!!! I'd love to have one... it's just too pricey for me though. I hope I win one.
Would so love to win an AccuQuilt as my quilting time is so limited right now! This would actually leave me time to stitch!
