On July 27th, I received the email of a life time. Carolyn from Accuquilt wrote saying she wanted to send me a FREE Accuquilt GO fabric cutter to try, review and do a tutorial on how well it works. On that day, in your part of the world, if you heard a far away noise, it was me screaming around the house telling my family about this email.

Well, my GO! was delivered late Friday afternoon. The unfortunate thing was we had over 120 people coming the next day for Kelsie's graduation party, so this is my first chance to tell you about it. I will be playing with this wonderful piece of technology all day, all week, for the rest of my life!

Here's the best part of the story though. I will be doing a tutorial/review on my Accuquilt Go, sometime this week. On that tutorial post, there will be a give away for another FREE Accuquilt GO fabric cutter for one of my blog readers. WOO HOO! Can you believe it? They will send one of you a free Accuquilt Go! I think I'm going to cry, I'm so excited about this.

So look for the give away post this week to enter for a chance to win. Remember, this is not the post to be entered! In the meantime, while you're waiting, hop over to Accuquilt and look at all the wonderful things they have on their site.
