This Creative Grids 6 ½” square quilt ruler features easy-to-read black and white markings printed in 1″ grids marked in ⅛” and ¼” increments. Use the easy-to-read, black numbers (printed on white dots) and the ¼” grip sides to cut whole inches. The ¼” dashed lines printed on two adjoining sides aid in trimming seam allowances. Use the patented Turn-A-Round feature – designated by the easy-to-read, white numerical numbers (printed on black dots) and the ½” grip sides – to add the ½” seam allowance. A 45-degree angle is printed in black and is used to trim half-square triangles to size. White horizontal and vertical lines are printed on the square so the center of the ruler is easily distinguishable. Use these lines to square up blocks based on four-patches or embroidered and appliquéd blocks.

The 6 ½” square quilt ruler slides easily over the fabric until pressure is applied. Then, the exclusive gripper holds the fabric in place while cutting, eliminating slipping and miss-cuts! Scan the QR Code printed on the ruler to view a tutorial on these features.
