Just not enough hours in the day for me at the moment. I am busy with a cot quilt using die cuts and loving it.
I have used a variety of shapes and find that I generally need to alter all of them even when I use the exact measurements from the die label. Maybe the die cuts are not a consistent shape with different fabrics. I have been using wonder under behind and I find that the technique that I use will allows me to get a good result on the second go,

This was my first try with the Accuquilt cat die cut. This was trimmed around and looked OK but i measured a die cut exactly and then altered the design to get a much better result.
Placing the die cut on the corner of a piece of template plastic helped me to get the exact measurements. Mind you the metric square divides a cm into four parts - not so useful! Once these were used in the software the applique stitched out beautifully.
The finished design is in the free design section.
