Fabric Cutting Service

   
Drunkards Path    

** new for 2011 **

Alex Anderson and Ricky Timms tell us that

** Better cuts make better quilts **

Well - now you can prove how true that is!
Visit my Quilt Studio and try out my Accuquilt Studio Cutter.
Cut your own fabric easily and accurately.
Special Introductory rate - first session
FREE!
One session is often all you will need  to cut fabric for a queen size quilt!
Because as an example - in less than 30 minutes you can cut all the Drunkards Path shapes  you would need - and more!
Subsequent sessions only £4  (Prices held til review in Feb 2012)


Drunkards Path Tile

Bring your own fabric and make accurate, repeated cuts safely and easily.
Cuts up to
10 layers at a time very accurately.
 
Very easy to use: 

1 - Lay your fabic on top of the cutting die  
2 -  Cover with plexi mat  
3 - Turn the handle to pass the die sandwich though the rollers  
4 - Voila! the fabric is cut!  

Multiple shapes cut with each pass
so all the pieces for a whole quilt top can be cut very quickly.
(eg - up to 50 hexagons in one go!)

And to make english paper piecing (EPP) even easier - avoid basteing by cutting the paper shapes from freezer paper!  Iron to the reverse side, finger press the seam line and hand sew together.
I have 2 EPP dies per set - 1 for fabric, 1 for the paper templates

Suitable for regular, pre-fused or pre-quilted fabrics,
fleece, felt, paper, card etc


First session free / then £4 per session
(Prices held til review in Feb 2012) 
Session includes use of additional equipment if necessary (iron etc)
Bring your own fabric, or also available at my Studio are fabrics and fusibles for purchase.
My Studio is located in East Prawle near Kingsbridge S Devon England.
(mail order also available - see below)
