I believe a "die" is required for every single shape you cut with a Sissix machine. I looked at them before and didn't want to have to invest that much money into one hobby. The Silhouette Cameo I just bought will do all the shape cutting I need without having to purchase dies that would also require storage space. The AccuQuilt is fabric only. It is time consuming to cut quilt pieces. You need SO many pieces and getting accurate cuts is important. The AccuQuilt is a Quilter's dream. Cutting is no fun.
Another benefit worth mentioning is that the cameo requires the use of a stabilizer of some type to cut fabric, the accu quilt does not. You wouldn't want to make a quilt with stiffened fabric, it's good for appliqué though.

Cool, Thanks @Karen , @Molly , and @Lindsay for the details! Sounds a lot better. We'll give AccuQuilt a call and see what their minimum order quantities look like.
What makes this better/more efficient than using the Silhouette Cameo to cut your fabric?

Accuquilt dies will work in a Sizzix Big Shot from what I've read. I love my Go! cutter though especially for cutting strips and squares.
The Big Shot Pro will cut fabric as well, but I think that their die plates might be a hair thinner than those of the Accuquilt. I would check to see for sure if the two types of dies are interchangeable before trying to shove an Accuquilt die into a Big Shot Pro.
