I ordered one, but it won't arrive until November. I'm ok with that. I just got my notice- November 20th! I'm fine too, but it's a long time! I'm certainly OK with saving 75-90% off retail! With free shipping, usually, too!

Thanks. November isn't really all that far off.

Did anyone else get their dies early? Mine came yesterday and had a November ship time. I was pleasantly surprised! They were really thin, but they cut just fine. I tried 2 pieces of the Silhouette chipboard together and it went right through them! Thanks for sharing the info!

Advice please! How can I tell if the stacking stitched edge dies are cutting a shape or a frame? (hard to explain, but hope you know what I mean!) Thanks!

Interesting Observation:
I just bought "Only 1 in Stock" of the tags. I looked at the seller name. So after I hit purchase, I checked again, and now it shows IN STOCK and there is a DIFFERENT seller name.

They just bump up a different company once another one sells out of it.

Not sure if this is what you mean-I purchased the tags with the stitching and they are shapes, not frames. Although I guess if you used 2 of them together you would get a smaller shape and a frame. <Sorry if that doesn't help.>

sunny 101 that's exactly what I meant, thanks. I realised the tags were shapes, but wondered about the stitched edge circles and squares too as it's not always easy to see which side of the stitch line the cutting edge is.

My dies and stamps are starting to arrive. My delivery window was late October to late November, so I'm on the early side of that estimate. So far, everything looks good.

Bought this one. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071LHMCMZ/Didn't want to post about it til I got it and tried it. Which I have. WORK GREAT! I can't believe how reasonable they are. I also bought a set of stitched circles. Finally, I can afford stacking stitched dies! I used mine for the 1st time tonight and I love them! Thanks so much for letting us know about them.

OK, I'm having a brain fart. I love the look, but can't figure out how you get the white stitching. Someone please explain while I go eat dinner. Hoping that low blood sugar will explain my inability to figure out how these work . . .

Hoping that low blood sugar will explain my inability to figure out how these work . . . You don't get white stitching. I think they only did that to show off where the faux stitching is. If you die cut colored paper, you will only see the piercings (or dents) in the same color as the paper. I suppose you could run a white gel pen over the lines, but personally, I think it would not look so good. I have several "stitched" dies, and I really like them.

I didn't word my question right, lol. I knew they didn't come with stitching. I was wondering how I would get the stitching to show up on the tag. Does the die actually punch out the stitches so you can back it w/cardstock?

Kind of like an embossing folder, except the design is the stitch marks. You can still see the stitching on whatever you diecut. Just not able to back it with anything to see a different color because there are no actual holes.

...I love the look, but can't figure out how you get the white stitching... This is exactly what I despise about digital image samples too often used to advertise products. They are frequently misleading & do not realistically reflect the finished product.

Yeah! Two of my dies showed up early. I had to shim both to get them to cut but I think it's because I need new cutting plates for my big shot.

Does the die actually punch out the stitches so you can back it w/cardstock? If you wanted that look, you could possibly ink the stitch lines with pigment ink, carefully attach the die to the paper with washi tape when you cut so it won’t shift/smear, and when you run it through the machine the white ink on the stitch lines would transfer to the paper as it cuts. It would be worth a try! It would be similar to inking parts of an embossing folder before you run it through to transfer the ink to the paper.

mikklynn thanks. I'd like to get a set of nesting circle dies with stitched edges, but would prefer a frame to a shape. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it.

I started a card w/it. I will try to post a picture when it's done. But the die cuts well.

I bought the set of nine (some are nested shapes, so actually more than nine) and they’re great! Those came right away. I also got a free horse die that’s pretty cute and a set of four assorted snowflakes and even the most intricate one cuts perfectly. Those took longer to get here but for the two bucks and change that they cost it was worth the wait! The anticipated delivery date was Dec. 1 and it showed up today so I was pretty excited about that.
