December is in full swing which means you're probably buying gifts, planning get togethers and decorating for the season. If you could pause from your cookie baking and stocking hanging for just a moment, the elves at AccuQuilt have some new GO! dies to share with you. Yes, Santa came early and we're releasing THREE new dies! Santa's surprise dies include one adorable appliqué and two new Blocks on Board^® (BOB^®).

This is Marjorie Busby from bluefeatherquiltstudio.com, and I want to share an updated machine embroidery project using the new GO! Classic 2" Alphabet Uppercase Set Die (55559). All the letters are on one die and it is fun and easy to personalize any project in as many ways as you like using words. Just look around and you will see word quilts everywhere and there is no better way to create a word quilt than to use an alphabet die which makes your cuts effortless and accurate.

Whether you live near the beach or cool off at the city pool this summer, don't forget the #1 accessory...your beach bag. Today I'm sharing instructions for a quick finish bag. Never made a bag with a lining? That's okay, I promise it will be easy.

We recently announced some new additions to our family of GO! dies: the highly-requested GO! Baby Bib (55864) and GO! Burp Cloth (55863). These project dies can create three complete baby bibs or burp cloths (two cuts for the front and back of each) with one pass through a GO! fabric cutter. Handmade gifts are special, especially when they are personalized, so we designed these dies so there is just enough room for a myriad of appliqué shapes, monograms or embellishments.

Check out these appliqué shapes guaranteed to be perfect for your GO! Baby Bib or GO! Burp Cloth project!
