Designed by Rachel Cross. This 8-1/2 inch x 18-1/2 inch rectangle ruler is a workhorse. It is the perfect size to span the most popular size of rotary cutting mats. And, since it is 25% smaller than the original 24-1/2 inch version, it is easier to manipulate.

This 8-1/2 inch x 18-1/2 inch rectangle ruler is a workhorse. It is the perfect size to span the most popular size of rotary cutting mats. And, since it is 25% smaller than the original 24-1/2 inch version, it is easier to manipulate. The wide width makes it the perfect choice to square up corners and borders. It features easy-to-read black and white markings printed in 1 inch grids marked in 1/8 inch and 1/4 inch increments. Use the black numbers (printed on white dots) and the 1/4 inch grip sides to cut whole inches, while the white numbers (printed on black dots) and the 1/2 inch grip sides add the 1/2 inch seam allowance. 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! 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 30 degree - 60 degree 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.
