Ever wish you had more time to quilt? The AccuQuilt GO! System was designed to make cutting your fabric pieces faster and more accurate than manual options - not to mention, more FUN! There are so many great options for quilters of all levels, and we love all of the free patterns that AccuQuilt shares on their website.
Today, we’ll highlight the benefits of the AccuQuilt system & show you everything you need to get started, including some of our favorite free patterns you can make with these time-saving tools!
“Measure twice, cut once” is a familiar adage, but the AccuQuilt GO! System virtually eliminates human errors that are so easy to make with manual methods. There are dies available for all shapes and sizes, from simple to complex, and it’s especially great for tricky curves and complex shapes.
If you’ve ever injured yourself with your sewing scissors or your rotary blade, you know that safety in the sewing room is no joke. The AccuQuilt system is a much safer choice because your hands are never near the blades during the cutting process (and each AccuQuilt set includes a special cleaning tool to keep you safe when cleaning your dies). Plus, you can cut up to 6 layers of fabric at a time.
Overall, the AccuQuilt GO! System is 90% faster than manual options, and so many of our customers have reported that they’ve tried projects they would have never considered before (such as quilts with curved shapes or English paper piecing) simply because they didn’t trust their own cuts.
As an official AccuQuilt retailer, we regularly host classes to help you get the most out of your investment (just call us at (815)836-8735 or visit our website to see upcoming class options).
If you’re just starting out, we recommend the Accuquilt GO! Ready, Set, Go Ultimate Fabric Cutting System. One of our shop favorites, this set has all of the must-haves, including the GO! Fabric Cutter, GO! Cutting Mat, a variety of 8” Qube Mix & Match blocks, pattern book, die pick and more, all within a self-contained storage system.
Another great starter set is the GO! Big starter set, which quickly cuts two 6” wide dies side by side at the press of a button! This system is compatible with all GO! dies, including the new 14”x16” GO! Big dies.
Each set folds up for storage and easy carry, but if you need to take your cutter and extra dies on the go, check out the GO! Tote & Die bag.
