Bloc Loc Half Square Triangle Multiple-Sized 6-1/2 Quilting Ruler with Grid Lines

As a more beginning quilter this tool was invaluable in helping me square up all the HSTs for a quilt I made my sister. It was made entirely with half square Triangles and if they arent squared up properly, things can go wonky super fast. This tool let me easily and quickly square up my blocks and made sewing everything together that much smoother. Ill definitely be purchasing more Bloc Loc rulers. This was my 1st quilt that ever required half square Triangles, and only the 6th quilt Ive ever made, and Im so glad I had this ruler to help me. Also, if anyone is interested, I used a Donna Jordan tutorial titled Hugs and Kisses (which is a Fab Five Pattern). Its on her Jordan Fabrics YouTube page.

Cuts time significantly for squaring up HSTs.

Easily makes geese for you!

It makes squaring up a lot easier.

I used it for cutting triangles from a square. Made my life a lot easier and faster.

Started using this ruler/squaring tool and it definitely is a game changer. Was very pricey for a piece of plastic, but having the right tool really helped. Now all my HSTs are square and not wonky. A must buy if you want to get better with your quilting.

Id been debating if this would be worth the money but having seen it used multiple times on the quilting videos I decided to give it a try. Im so glad I did!

This half square triangle ruler is perfect to trim those half square triangles, allowing for that seam bump that can throw off your trimming!

I have several sizes of bloc loc rulers and love them. I bought this one for 5” blocks but it didn’t work like the others. I recommend looking at Utube video for this 61/2” ruler. It is used a little differently than others
