Here are the Top 12 Dies that were purchased last year by Schools & Educators.
Top of the List: Qubes!
Sales of Qubes vastly outnumbered sales of individual dies this year. Their value is obvious. There are 72 different block patterns from each set of dies. Even more if a Qube Companion Set is added.
Most popular size is the 12" Qube.
Second most popular = 6" Qube.
The 8" and 9" Qubes were tied for 3rd and 4th Place.
Each Qube has 8 dies:
GO! Square-3 1/2" (3" Finished)
GO! Square-2" (1 1/2" Finished)
GO! Half Square Triangle-3" Finished Square
