In order to move to a certain position in a CadQuery sketch, use .push(cq.Location(...))
Full example
import cadquery as cq # Create workplane (2d coordinate system for us to create the sketch in) wp = cq.Workplane("XY") # Create sketch result = wp.sketch().push(cq.Location((1,0.5,0))).rect(1,1).finalize().extrude(0.1) result # This line is just to show the result in cq-editor or jupyter
