    We here at Quilt N Go just love new books and notions. We feel so lucky to be around them everyday we
    work. We do realize, however, that our customers can’t always afford to buy every single new book and no-
    tion that comes out! So we have decided to help you narrow down what books and notions are really great to
    put on your MUST BUY list. Each newsletter a member of our staff will review a new book or notion.
    Accu-Cut Die Cutter
    We are renting the die cutter to our customers to use in the store. We have a jelly
    roll die (2-1/2” strips), a charm die (5x5 squares) and a 2”-3”-4”& 5” Circle die.
    The cost is $10 an hour and you can cut your fabric or ours. We will add dies as
    interest grows. You need to schedule when you want to use it so call ahead.
