Rulers

A ruler is a flat, square or rectangular measuring tool made of acrylic. It is marked with units of length, such as inches or centimeters. It is primarily used along with a rotary cutter to make straight accurate cuts of fabric. They are also used to measure completed quilt blocks, and to square them up to the desired size. Quilt rulers range from 1/8” to ¼” in thickness. Thinner rulers are used for cutting and measuring fabric, fatter rulers are for sewing in conjunction with a sewing machine.
