Peanut butter & jelly, Bert & Ernie, movies & popcorn… Some things are just better together. Like EQ8 and AccuQuilt®!

The Electric Quilt Company and AccuQuilt are happy to announce your favorite pair of quilting tools are now even easier to use together! EQ8 and AccuQuilt GO! Qube® dies are coming together to bring quilters an exciting new series of add-on products, making it more streamlined to design quilts that can be cut using your favorite dies.

Six AccuQuilt GO! Qube add-on products for EQ8 software will be released in 2024. The first add-on, AccuQuilt GO! Qube: Mix & Match, Plus Corners and Angles, will be released in just a few weeks on October 21. One lucky winner will get their hands on this new add-on early! More details about the giveaway below.

The AccuQuilt GO! Qube: Mix & Match, Plus Corners and Angles add-on features all 216 blocks designed by AccuQuilt for their Mix & Match Block System:

  • 72 blocks designed using the base Mix & Match Set
  • 72 blocks using the Corners Companion Set
  • 72 blocks using the Angles Companion Set

Imagine the quilts you could design with this many blocks and how easy it will be to cut your patches using your dies! It really is a match made in quilter’s heaven.

Along with the Block Library, this add-on also includes the EQ Add-on Guide PDF and the Block Reference PDF. These helpful resources guide you though using the blocks with your Qube, as well as providing diagrams for every block labeled with the die-shape number you need to make your quilt.

Five additional add-on products will be released later this year! Each add-on will come with 60 blocks, designed by Lori Miller, for use with the AccuQuilt GO! Qube Mix & Match base set. Get design inspiration from 10 bonus quilt projects in each of these five add-ons:

  • AccuQuilt GO! Qube: Fabulous Four Patch
  • AccuQuilt GO! Qube: Nine Patch Party
  • AccuQuilt GO! Qube: Sweet Sixteen
  • AccuQuilt GO! Qube: Five Patch Fun
  • AccuQuilt GO! Qube: More Corners & Angles (uses shapes from the Corners and Angles Companion Sets)

Don’t have AccuQuilt products? You can still design with all of the blocks in this great add-on like you would with any other block in EQ8! Use EQ8’s printing options to generate yardage estimates, rotary cutting charts, templates, and foundation paper piecing patterns to create your quilt.
