Description of πŸ”² CGR418 Creative Grids Quilt Ruler - 4-1/2in x 18-1/2in: The Perfect Tool for Quilters

This 4-1/2 x 18-1/2 inch rectangle ruler features easy-to-read black and white markings printed in 1 inch grids marked in 1/8 and 1/4 inch increments. Use the easy-to-read, black numbers (printed on white dots) and the 1/4 inch grip sides to cut whole inches. The 1/4 inch in 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, numerical white numbers (printed on black dots) and the 1/2 inch grip sides – to add the 1/2 inch seam allowance. Use the white 45 degree angle to trim half-square triangles in whole inch increments. Use the black 45 degree angle to trim half-square triangles in half inch increments. An additional black 45 degree line is placed so that two angles cross 1/4 inch away from the outside edge. Use these markings to square up flying geese units; squares set on point or mark cross-hatching. The ruler also features a 30degree/60degree angle. White horizontal and vertical lines are printed on the rectangle so the center of the ruler is easily distinguishable. Use these lines to fussy cut stripes and borders. The ruler slides easily over the fabric until pressure is applied. Then, our exclusive gripper holds the fabric in place while cutting, eliminating slipping and miss-cuts!. Total Size - 4-1/2in x 18-1/2in. Made in the USA.

Not User-Friendly Quilting Ruler

As someone who enjoys Arts and Crafts, I had high hopes for this quilting ruler. Unfortunately, it was far from user-friendly. Through trial and error, I found that the measurements were not accurate and it was difficult to maneuver when cutting fabric. While the grid lines were clear, they could have been more visible against different fabrics. The only positive was its durability. Overall, I would not recommend this product for anyone looking for a reliable quilting ruler.

Pros
  • Accurate measurements and markings for precise cutting and trimming.
Cons
  • May require additional storage space due to its larger size compared to other rulers.

I love the new creative mesh rulers

Love the new creative net rulers! They don't move like many other rulers, they are very easy to read and I would recommend them to any quilter.

Pros
  • . The ruler glides easily over the fabric until pressure is applied. Our exclusive grip then holds the fabric in place as you cut, preventing slipping and sliding!
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model

GREAT RULERS for quilting

Excellent ruler for trimming large blocks. The bonus is that it grips and doesn't slide on the fabric. A big plus for beginners. I do not buy any templates or rulers other than CG, this is my trademark.

Pros
  • Overall size - 4-1/2" x 18-1/2"
Cons
  • Some little things
