help AccuQuilt GO! Fabric Cutter FAQ
How many layers of fabric can the AccuQuilt GO! cut at once?
The AccuQuilt GO! can cut up to six layers of cotton quilting fabric simultaneously, depending on the specific die being used. This makes it significantly faster than rotary cutting when producing dozens of identical shapes for a large quilt.
Do I need to buy dies separately for the AccuQuilt GO!?
Yes, the dies are sold separately and come in a wide variety of shapes, including common quilting sizes like 2.5-inch strips, half-square triangles, and tumbler dies. Most starter bundles include one or two basic strip or square dies to get you going.
Can the AccuQuilt GO! cut fabric other than quilting cotton?
Yes, it can handle wool, felt, denim, leather, and batting, though the recommended maximum number of layers decreases for thicker materials. Many quilters use it for wool felt appliqué projects as well as traditional patchwork.
How does the AccuQuilt GO! compare to the Sizzix Big Shot for quilting?
The AccuQuilt GO! is purpose-built for quilting, with dies that include built-in seam allowances and dog-eared corners for easier piecing. The Sizzix Big Shot is a more general-purpose die-cutting machine popular with scrapbookers and paper crafters, though it can cut fabric with compatible dies.
