Cricut

So I think I want a cricut. Does anyone have one? Tell me if you love it or maybe if I should just borrow it! :o) They are pretty spendy - but I think I would use it a lot. I have two large projects in mind right now that would almost make it worth the $250... Almost. It can cut paper and fabric to any shape I want, basically. I can make personalized party banners, lots of cute cards, and I want to make new Christmas stockings for our little family this year. And I could save on the cost of embroidering names if I could cut them out with fabric and stitch them on...
