New Product! Add-on EQ8 Block Library: AccuQuilt BOB SET 5

New BOB Blocks are here! This new Add-on EQ8 Block Library for AccuQuilt contains the 9 BOB blocks and variations that were released in 2023. BOB die blocks enable you to create an entire block with one die board.  Every piece needed for the block is on the design board. You can design your quilt with EQ8 and then use your AccuQuilt GO! cutter to cut it out.

This file contains SET 5 of the BOB block designs which includes 9 blocks.  The blocks vary in size as indicated to match the actual size of the BOB die block. I have included the size of the block by the name reference.

The ONLY designs included in this set are:

  • GO! Canning Jar 8” (55614)
  • GO! Fractured Tumbler 6” (55627)

Required: A running copy of EQ8 Quilt Design Software from The Electric Quilt Company.

Required: You will need the Accuquilt BOB die set in the size that matches the EQ8 library file in order to cut out these block designs with the Accuquilt GO! Cutter.  Make sure your cutter is the right size for the BOB die.

This is a downloadable digital file that you will place into your personal block library.  Once you place the block file in your library, you will be able to use it immediately to draw and design quilts.  I have included all of the instructions to add the files to your EQ8 Design Software.  You will receive the EQ8 Block library, a block reference guide and an instruction document.  The blocks are all labeled to match the reference guide.

Now you can use the power of EQ8 to recolor and combine blocks to design beautiful quilts.

Once you have designed your quilt, you can use your Accuquilt GO! Cutter to make it.  I have also included tips and suggestions for determining what dies to use and how to determine fabric requirements.

I hope you enjoy these files as you create your BOB design quilts.

New Product! AccuQuilt Qube Quick Reference Guides

They are here! The brand new AccuQuilt Qube Quick Reference Guides by Lori Miller Designs.

If you don’t know by now, I love using my AccuQuilt GO! Cutters with my GO! Qube sets. I just think they are so versatile to create all kinds of traditional style blocks in many different sizes.

I was printing out the huge GO! Fabric Reference Chart provided by AccuQuilt which is a wealth of great information. However, I wanted something a bit easier to read since I used it so often. And since I have been buying multiple sizes of Qubes, I wanted the Qube information for several sizes.

So I created a Quick Reference Guide for every Qube!

In this guide, you have all of the information at your fingertips in a larger print to figure out how to cut out the shapes you need from your AccuQuilt GO! Qubes and Strips.  There are visual guides to all of the shapes.  It contains what size strips to cut and how many shapes you can get out of a strip.  It also includes fan folding information and how many shapes are on a die board.  This convenient guide gathers all the information you need in one place!

There are 4 pages of information for each size of GO! Qube:

  • Shapes 1 – 8 included in the AccuQuilt GO! Qube Mix & Match
  • Shapes 9-12.1 included in the AccuQuilt GO! Qube Companion Corners
  • Shapes 13- 16 included the AccuQuilt GO! Qube Companion Angles
  • A page with the corresponding block and Side and Corner Setting Triangles, plus Grid information to go beyond the Four Patch original block designs.

Bonus

I have also created TWO pages of information on the various GO! Strip dies containing all of the information to help you figure out what to cut and how much fabric you will need.

This AccuQuilt GO! Qube Quick Reference Guide is so handy and I don’t even have to grab my readers to see the print. I made mine even easier by printing the Guide on Card Stock and I punched a hole in each one for a ring to hold them all together.

You can purchase the guide in my shop.
