Tumblers

I have had this 3" tumbler template for awhile and never used it, so during a recent stitching session with a few friends, I took the opportunity to try it out.  As I was cutting, I commented that the template makes the job so much easier than cutting tumblers with a ruler and then a friend had to burst my bubble and tell me that AccuQuilt just came out with a 3" tumbler die to go with their new Go! Baby.  Just think how fast I could have cut out this little wall hanging if I had a Go! Baby!  (Hint, hint...are you listening, Santa?)

    Oh yeah....can you imagine how much faster it would be??? I hope Santa is reading this. I was reading the other day that it made more since to get the big GO instead because the baby doesn't come with the mat or dies.

    What a lovely quilt. Yes I can see just how useful a tumbling template would be. I hope Santa brings you one.

    I have been going to make one of those. I would think the template would make it so much easier and I think they are quick to sew to aren't they? I like your quilt, another good way to use some scraps. Did you get your template at Joanns? BTW, I am headed your way.

    Wouldn't we all love a tumbler quilt like yours but it remains on the list apart from a little mini I did. I think I have the same template. I hope Santa's listening to your wish.
