Key Features and Benefits

AccuQuilt compatibility

The libraries are designed to integrate seamlessly with AccuQuilt’s Bob dies, enabling users to translate their digital EQ8 designs into physical quilts with ease.

Pre-drawn Blocks

These blocks are already drawn for you in sizes that match AccuQuilt’s most popular BOB dies. You can set the blocks right into EQ quilt layouts, mix and match blocks, and play with colors or fabric until you have designed your perfect quilt.

Easy Installation

The Block Collections install right into your EQ8 block Library so they are ready to use right away. Helpful PDF Resources install directly to your My EQ8 > Documentation folder on your computer for easy access.

Color Coded Organization

AccuQuilt GO! BOB blocks are organized in the EQ Block Library, color-coded by finished size so you can easily design quilts with dies you own.

What better way to show off what you can do with the BOB Add-on Block Libraries than to show you quilts I have made using the BOB blocks designed in EQ8.

Pineapple BOB Die – Collector’s Edition 1

I loved being able to choose my own colors and fabrics until I get just the look I want.

Butterfly Pieced Butterfly Block – Collector’s Edition 2

I even mixed some of the BOB blocks with Qube blocks and even blocks I designed myself in EQ8

This quilt design software is so versatile, I can truly make my designs my own.

You can find the EQ8 BOB Collector’s Edition 1 and 2 available for purchase at ElectricQuilt.com and AccuQuilt.com!
