You will love this line!

I have all of the Stripology lines but this is by far my favorite. In fact, this is my favorite quilting ruler! It easily replaces many of them. This makes cutting extremely precise and very fast. It is ideal for cutting strips, smooth or slanted. Square blocks are very simple. Diamonds can also be sharpened quickly. BUY THIS LINE! You will not regret it. Watch the Stripology 101 video on gequiltdesigns.com to learn how to take full advantage of it.

Pros
  • Regular Price
Cons
  • Not bad

game changer! for rulers and ruler stands

I like to try new tools, but many of them turn out to be useless. This tool is more than a ruler. When used carefully and correctly, it allows you to make many cuts in seconds. Every cut is exactly the same. It takes a little more care to make custom sizing cuts, but again, every stripe is accurate. It works for both left-handed and right-handed people. I was hesitant to spend that much on a trial tool. It's more durable than I expected, but if it ever breaks or wears out I'll order another inโ€ฆ

  • few competitors

Speeds up cutting strips of fabric

GAMER CHANGER for QUILTERS! My friend recommended the Stripology line. I'm ashamed of the price but it's worth every penny. By cutting the fabric and using the Stripology ruler (watch the GE Designs videos for great instructions) I was able to cut the strips MUCH FASTER for my next project. This saved me about 75% of my time because I can cut 20" of fabric into 2 1/2" wide strips in minutes. I didn't have to keep changing the position of the fabric. The strips are also very accurate. I used aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Useful not only for its intended purpose
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

Beautiful - exactly the quality that Creative Grids offers!

I've only used my new Stripology XL Quilting Rule a few times so far and it works great! It stays securely in place, as Creative Grids promises. It's a little pricey, but I figured it was worth it, and I knew it was worth it when I quickly cut four 5" strips without moving the ruler! Ruler. If you're looking to get this cool Stripology line, I'd advise everyone to spend the extra money and get this XL version - it's a nice size. :-) In addition, my ruler was packed very well. big box and wasโ€ฆ

Pros
  • High test scores for hold and durability
Cons
  • Not as thick as others

Great but requires careful folding

I love Creative Grids rulers so I was dying to try this time-saving ruler. I just completed a quilt that included 96 strips that were 10.5" each and 56 blocks that were 10.5" each. I've found that if you make even the slightest mistake in folding the fabric, your cuts can be wrong! I had to trim the entire width of the fabric for a set of 10.5 inch strips. Luckily I had enough material. I am very experienced in rotary cutting, measuring, topstitching and quilting. My advice: DO NOT try to foldโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Dope ๐Ÿ”ฅ
Cons
  • Expensive

Excellent line with 1 caveat.

My wife is a seamstress. She has both smaller versions of this line. They make cutting strips much easier. The designer was clearly left-handed as the numbers run from left to right and the zero on the left. Previous versions had numbers at both the top and bottom of the ruler. In this version they omitted 1 sentence. It was probably intentional, but it was difficult for her to use a ruler. Before, she could have zero on the right side even if she was upside down. To have a zero on the right in
