As you know I work a lot with the accuquilt dies. I have been wanting to make something with the large hexagon die and the matching equilateral Triangle They both finish with a side that’s 4 1/4” This quilt is just CUTE! I wanted to copy that and change the colors a bit. In EQ7 …
The winding ways block and Go! die is an oldie but goodie! If you search for a Winding ways block or just “winding” in EQ7 you won’t find it, so I created one. Now I created it because I have the GO! die, so 100% accuracy was not important to me, I just wanted to …
Doyoueq posted a challenge for this month : DIAMONDS! So I figured I’d play around with some diamond blocks first I searched for “diamond” and got 50 blocks Let’s pick some, and create a new quilt of course I’d go with a diamond layout (Quilt/new quilt/ variable point) And I inserted some blocks and rotated …
Since I’m also doing the Accuquilt Go! challenge this year. I was thinking of combining both for this tutorial. It’s more of just ideas/inspiration I guess.

Today I’m going to link to the Red and White EQ blog hop I participated in last week. Here’s the link to the post I showed lots of ideas for the GO! dies. Some for the mix and match set and also did a tutorial on a “cheater” way to do the apple core block. …
When SewCalGal announced this blog hop, I jumped right on it! I actually have never made a true red and white quilt with those two colors only! – I need to change that….. As you may know, I’m also doing an Accuquilt monthly Challenge, so I figured I’d play with some accuquilt dies in EQ …
Since I’m doing the Accuquilt monthly Challenge this year, I love to try and design quilts in EQ7 first to get ideas. One of the new dies in the fall of 2013 were the bow tie die! The finished block size is 4”- kind of small but GREAT for scraps!! This is the picture from …
As you may know, I’m doing an Accuquilt GO! Challenge each month in 2014 and I figured I’d show how to design quilts with the hunter star die. Each section is 6” but finishes at 12” for a star (4 part block) First if you search for “HUNTER” in EQ blocks You’ll see these. Add …
Last week I was sorting my Go! dies and I really want to use them more (just wait and see- hint hint) anyways, I figured I’d do a tutorial on some of the dies! First, I bought the mix and match set with my Go! cutter and and then downloaded the patch block idea chart …
Do You EQ?? Do you do the EQ Challenges too?? This month’s challenge is to ALTER a block, and actually I was stumped as to what to do with this tutorial, so this is perfect! this time I’m writing the tutorial AS I’m doing it, where normally I do something “neat” and then think of …
