Clover 9506 5 in 1 Sliding Gauge with Nancy Zieman

Sliding gauge stays in place. I love how if I am sewing several items of the same thing and need the same measurement, the guide stays in place. No more having to adjust slide and fumbling with a ruler. So glad I found this gauge. Price was cheaper on Amazon than on other sites.

Nancy Clover Thank you! This is the best sliding gauge I have ever used. I like the way it locks into each measurement so my measurement will not slide as I move along my fabric.

I like this versatile tool very much & think I will keep the directions so I get the fullest use out of it. If it were made of metal, I would give it 5 stars.

I really love this sliding gauge. It is accurate and easy to use. I have an old metal gauge and the slightest bump will throw your measurements off. This gauge locks into place and its wider so you can use it for tapered pieces and still have an accurate measurement.

While I like the guage, I would have expected it to be made from a harder plastic. That was a disappointment. Other than that, it works as described and is a useful addition to my sewing room.

When I place the guide at 2 I expected it to measure 2 inches from the end to the guide, but it doesnt. Another reviewer wrote she wished this came with directions. Now I know what she means. This particular ruler even though an older Nancy Z. version was made in China. Usually we can count on Clover to be high quality made in Japan, so that was another disappointment. I returned it and was given a refund.

I love this and better yet I got it cheaper than I would have at Nancy s Notions. I love a bargain. The slide bar is slightly grooved so it stays in place. It can be used as a compass to draw circles and again since the slide bar doesnt move it is perfect.

I have always used the small metal rulers that my mother used, but it didnt seem to be sufficient lately, especially after I ran across the little plastic indicator that rarely stayed in place while using my rotary cutter. When I saw this ruler by Nancy Zieman, whose television program I always enjoyed and who was a bit of a heroine for me back when I was just developing my sewing skills, I decided to try using it and it has worked very well. The indicator is hard to miss and it keeps its place until I decide to move it. I am very pleased with my purchase.

My grandma has old metal sliding gauges, and she saw this and wanted it! It made her happy!!

So helpful and accurate. Good product.
