GO friendly Quilts

Since buying the Accuquilt GO cutter about a year ago, more of my quilts are being designed to be cut partially or in whole with my GO and I thought I would gather the links to those quilts on one page. Keep in mind the instructions are mostly written for rotary cutting but are easily adaptable for the dies listed.

Click on the quilt photo for a larger view, or on the pattern name to go to that page to download the instructions. This page is a work in progress so check back frequently.

You can also see some of the designs I’m playing with by clicking on the Playing with EQ7 link on the sidebar. These are quilts that haven’t been made or don’t have instructions but in many cases can be made with the Accuquilt GO.

4 Patches on the Diagonal uses the 6.5 inch half square triangle die, the 3 inch finished square die, the 2 inch strip die, and the 1.5 inch strip die.

Indigo Blue uses the 2.5 inch strip die and the 4.5 inch half square triangle die

Framed Rectangles uses the 2 inch strip die, the 2.5 inch strip die and the 3.5 x 6.5 rectangle die.

Stars and Pinwheels uses the 4.5 half square triangle and the 4 inch finished square if you add the border. For a smaller quilt, the 3.5 inch half square triangle can be used.

String Tumblers - uses the Tumbler die

Drunkard’s Path uses the 7.5 inch Drunkard’s Path Die.

Lattice uses the 6.5 inch half square triangle die and the 1.5 inch strip die.

Any of the Chinese Coins quilts listed on the left sidebar can be made with the GO. Just choose your strip size and use your 1.5 inch, 2 inch, or 2.5 inch die to piece the coins sections and then follow the instructions for sashing and borders.

Red Rover is another quilt made before I had my GO but it can be made with the 2.5 inch strip die and the 4.5 inch half square triangle die.


Twisted 9 Patch uses the 2.5 inch strip die and the 3.5 inch strip die if you have it.

Two Rail Fence is made with the 2.5 inch strip die. The borders were not cut with the GO.

Patriotic Rail Fence is made with the 2.5 inch strip die; the star is made with the 3 inch finished square, the 3.5 inch half square triangle, and the 6 inch finished square. Remember, you don’t have to have all the dies to make one of these. I rotary cut the 3 and 6 inch squares.

Double 4 Patch was made before I got my GO but can be pieced with the 2.5 inch strip die and the 4 inch finished square.


Easy Double 4 Patch can be pieced with the 2.5 inch strip die and the 4 inch finished square.

16 Patch and Pinwheels was made before I got my GO but it can be pieced with the 2.5 inch strip die and the 4.5 inch half square triangle die.

Boxed Squares uses the 2.5 inch strip die

The strips in Roman Stripes can be cut with the 1.5 inch strip die.

HeartStrings Happy Blocks can be cut with the 4 inch finished square and the 2.5 inch strip die.

    I just ordered a GO cutter, and am so excited! I have looked at them for a while, and have read how much you enjoy yours, so I decided to take the plunge! Cutting is my LEAST favorite part of quilting, so I think this will help a lot. Thank you so much for providing this information to all of us. I will refer to this page a lot, as I hope to make several of your quilts.
