This practical 8-1/2in x 24-1/2in rectangle ruler from Creative Grids® helps you cut wider strips and squares, but also has all of the features you’ve come to know and love in our rulers. And the longer length is great for cutting strips straight off the bolt. · Made in the USA with high quality acrylic and precision measurements ensuring accuracy for your quilting, sewing, patchwork, and crafting projects. · Creative Grids® exclusive non-slip grip allows you to easily slide the ruler over the fabric until positioned correctly. Then, when slight pressure is applied, the grip holds the ruler in place, eliminating slipping while you cut. · Easy to read black and white markings printed in 1in grids marked in 1/8in and 1/4in increments. · Use the black numbers printed on white dots and 1/4in grip side to cut whole inches. · Use our exclusive Turn-a-Round feature to cut 1/2in increments by following the white numbers on black dots and 1/2in grip sides. · The 1/4in dashed lines that are printed on two adjoining sides, aid in trimming seam allowances and the white and black 45 degree lines are for trimming half-square triangle blocks, flying geese units, squares set on point, and for marking lines for cross-hatch quilting. · This ruler also features a 30/60 degree angled line for cutting diamonds and for marking lines for diamond cross-hatch quilting. · White horizontal and vertical lines are printed on the rectangle so the center of the ruler is easily distinguished. Use these lines to fussy-cut stripes and borders. ·Scan the QR Code printed on the ruler to view a tutorial of these features and to see available patterns made using this rectangle.
