GOing into the new year with AccuQuilt GO! Fabric Cutting System

AccuQuilt is partnering with Michael Miller Fabrics for a fun project featuring batiks and the AccuQuilt fabric cutting system. As such, AccuQuilt provided each Michael Miller Brand Ambassador with a comprehensive Ready. Set. GO! Ultimate Fabric Cutting System
Products featured in this post were provided by AccuQuilt as part of my being a Michael Miller Brand Ambassador and part of the GO! Getter Program

My package arrived just in time for the winter holidays. Inside was a GO! Fabric Cutter, which easily folds when not in use for safe storage and transport.
