I'm looking for a stitched dies. I have wanted the set with all the shapes from Simon Says Stamp but every time I look they are out of stock. I even signed up for the email if they come back in and they haven't so I'm looking for a recommendations for another brand.
Joyce if you can't find them Nora can order for you. She has pierced dies in her shop. I love those but have the pierced circles, ovals, squares and rectangles. I'm going to look through her catalogs and see if I can find the double pierced dies next.

I did call her and she has one, I may take a ride this weekend to see what she has. What company are the ones you have? I can't remember what she said.
Many of the Lawn Fawn are sold out, and you don't get nearly as many, and the price is just a killer :( I need to win the stamping lottery to get all these fabulous tools.

My other three sets are pierced, similar to stitched but small holes instead of small lines.
Circles set has 9 dies
Rectangle set has 7 dies
Oval set has7 dies
And just back from Gina Marie - ordered up some of those dies. I have been looking at the stitched dies, but the prices kept me from buying. Glad I waited. Hopefully they work well.
I knew I shouldn't have peeked at the links....items magically jumped into my cart. You obviously have an advanced degree in Enabling! :cool: I can't beleive that 10 minutes ago, I never knew about this site...thanks (I think!) for the links!

Yes, I'm proud of my advanced Enabling Degree. I learned from the best here!
Those dies are a super bargain though!

Order in and done, Oh Great Enambler! :cool: They definitely were priced lower than any other source I've found, and even scored free shipping. I am hoping the quality is good, since I purchased some dies as a gift for a dear stamping friend.

I got the stitched ones, and of course, I haven't used them yet. I will try to do a test for you and post back my results.
Amber/Sprtchick who makes so many cards, says she loves the Gina Marie dies!

Boss, I just tried out the stitched oval die and it works very well. Cuts smoothly in my Cuttlebug, and the stitched lines show up great. Here is a scan of it. Don't know if you can see the detail on the stitches, but it's there:

Thanks for doing a test with the dies, Bugga. The stitch lines in the die cut look perfect. Glad to hear they cut nice and clean in a Cuttlebug because that's the diecut machine both DF and I use.
Can't wait to try out the new Gina Marie dies. I ordered two different shaped label dies with stitching and the amazing pine needle die. I will be watching the mailbox like a hawk.
I have the ones I linked to above, and some other SSS stitched dies, and they cut beautifully. I have more on my wishlist and hope there's a good sale before/over the holidays!

They're not as economical as other brands, but I like that the stitching is on both sides of the cut line.
SSS has a lot of stitched dies.
i thought I had to have some double stitched dies. After I got them I realized that 99% of the cuts I made, the gorgeous 2nd line of stitching was on a ratty scrap that got thrown away. I think I have used one of them, once, to make an aperture in a card front, which utilizes that line of outside stitching.
The only way you end up with both lines of stitching showing on your project is to cut the shape and put it back in place, which totally defeats the purpose of having a shaped die cut...on second thought, it might be a very cool, understated look on a clean & simple card. Might have to give this one a try!

Were they supposed to cut like that or did you get bad dies? I'm curious. Which brand is your die? I wish they would show a picture of one die cut with the actual item so you get a better look at how they will look cut.
Yep! Me, too! I got all plus the stitched squares and A Spellbinders Gold Label One. Great deal! Thanks so much for the heads up - I received them within a few days.

I have ordered several times and there are no issues with cutting her dies. You will love them, even more since the price is wholesale for everyone!
😃
There are double stitched dies that have 2 stitching lines and then there are in and out stitched dies where one is on the cut out die piece and the other line of stitching is on the "scrap" piece. I have these and so far have only used the cut out die piece since I usually use printed paper and the 2 parts of these dies would work best with solid cardstock where you inlay the inside piece. I won't be getting any more of this type but have a double stitched die set from MFT on my wishlist.
They have been out of stock for ever! I have been waiting on them.
I waited forever for them to become available. I was signed up for email notifications and, even then, missed getting them sometimes. I finally hit that magic time (moment!) when they were in stock.

Hey, Amber...if you have those stitched dies by Gina Marie, could you tell me what the largest one of each measures? They only say "4 inches wide". Not overly helpful.
I love the price on them and am sorely tempted. Well, I have been properly enabled. But I want to confirm the sizes before hitting the "pay" button!

Diane, I have the stitched rectangles and stitched ovals by Gina Marie. I measured:
Rectangle - largest - 5-1/4 x 3-3/4, smallest 2-1/4 x 7/8
Oval - (hard to measure accurately, but best I could do)
largest oval - 4 x 5, smallest 2-1/2 x 1-1/2
