I know one method to cut is

Click on the solidify and select remove.

Is this the appropriate method to do.

That's the only way, really. You can use an extrude feature and cut up to the surface, but that only uses the surface as the termination for the cut rather than cutting away the entire shape of the surface.

You should be able to extrude a solid cut up to a quilt or surface. If the cut is linear and normal to a possible sketch plane, then you can also use the surface/quilt edge as a projection feature in the solid cut sketch.

I guess it all depends on the application.
