I have all three cutters, and gave the go me to a friend, nice to share the fun. I have purchased several strip cutters, a few bobs and is dies. I love them and only use them for my quilts.

@maryanneblick2887 2 года назад

Very informative👍

@JennyFleming 3 года назад

Thank you for all your advice. I love EPP and like the idea of using dies to cut the fabric up for me.

@HomemadeEmilyJane 3 года назад

I love using AccuQuilt for my EPP! Especially because the pieces are often weird shapes

@denisek5208 3 года назад

Great tips! The AccQuilt has been on my wish list for quite awhile now... hopefully, soon. Thanks for sharing.

@HomemadeEmilyJane 3 года назад

I definitely recommend it!! ❤️

@bethcarter3737 2 года назад

Thank you Emily! You did an excellent job explaining the AccuQuilt & the cubes in this video, well done. My husband has wanted to get me an AccuQuilt cutter for a year now & I have put it off because as a newer quilter I didn’t want another machine/technique to learn. I was also overwhelmed with what die to begin with. However, the current quilt I have been working on has a ton of pieces (all HST) but as you know they are time consuming especially when my bulk cutting is off or I don’t exactly sew straight which adds another step in squaring up not only my pieces but blocks too. So, I am going to my quilt store & purchasing the Go Big tomorrow. I will refer to more of your videos & your blog for more tips. Happy holidays!

I’m so excited for you to get started! Happy Sewing!!

Thank you

@gwenmadeline54 3 года назад

Wow. Thank you. I finally have an idea of the different dies available. I bought a Go and have the 8 inch cube. I purchased a 2 1/2 strip and the log cabin die. I have been afraid to purchase anymore due to confusion and afraid of spending money on duplicates. I would mention that I am older and sometimes have trouble understanding what you say. It is easier when you speak at your slower rate.

@HomemadeEmilyJane 3 года назад

I’m so glad you found it helpful! I’ll try to keep speaking more clearly in mind for my future videos, in the meantime I do believe many of the videos have auto-generated captions if you turn them on ☺️ (click the CC button to turn on captions)

@artisticsharon1216 3 года назад

Thanks for sharing this information on the benefits of getting a Qube. I'm curious why the shapes are tilted on the die cutters? Doesn't that make the cut slightly off from the grain of the of the fabric?

@HomemadeEmilyJane 3 года назад

Hi Sharon! Great question! You’ll want to line your fabric grain up with the blade itself, rather than the die. The blades are at a slant so it feeds through the machine easier. You can learn more about it on this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-B5j6e6aIziI.html

Great video Emily, I’ve watched it twice. I bought the Big Go electric & the 8” cube Black Friday 2021. I wasn’t able to really dive into AccuQuilt until summer due to a home remodel, but once I did, I find I struggle making the HST accurately. I’m sure practice makes perfect, but do you really feel it’s faster to do lots of triangles this way versus the easy 8’s or 16’s? Right now it’s not for me because of sewing on the diagonal but I really hope I get better. I really appreciate your AccuQuilt tutorials! Thanks!

@HomemadeEmilyJane Год назад

Yes it’s so much quicker and easier than the other methods because once you get the seam accurate, you won’t need to take any time to trim them! Best of luck in your practice!

@carold1280 Год назад

Great informative video! I have the 8” cube and would like to make 12” blocks too. Would I need to just add an extra side and bottom row on any 8” accuquilt pattern to make the 12”?I am very new to Accuquilt but I love it 🎉 thanks

@HomemadeEmilyJane Год назад

Yes you can make 12” quilt blocks using the shapes in the 8” Mix and Match Qube! The Churn Dash block is one of my personal favorites to check out but the possibilities are truly endless! Happy sewing ❤️

@melissalanoue9022 2 года назад

can I cut my strips with the stips cutter and then put them on the die

@HomemadeEmilyJane 2 года назад

I’ve never tried it, I usually just do rough cuts with my rotary cutter. I have found it’s a tiny bit more accurate if you line up the fabric so the selvage is perpendicular as it feeds through the machine (I just recently started paying attention to this)

@Justsewjane 3 года назад

I love using the pre cuts. Which cube works well with the different pre cuts without a lot of waste?

@HomemadeEmilyJane 3 года назад

I rarely ever cut up pre-cuts using my AccuQuilt, but I'd say most shapes in the 6" Mix and Match Qube would work well with 5" squares with little waste.
