Creative Grids 12-1/2in Square It Up or Fussy Cut Square Quilt Ruler - CGRSQ12

Ive had this ruler for a couple years now and have been very afraid of it LOL ... BUT, now that I have figured out what this thing is on this Earth for, I dont know how I have done without it !! The Creative Grids video/demo helped some. I am doing the HOP TO IT machine embroidered appliqued quilt, which apparently is perfect for this ruler. My background blocks were cut to 10 to fit my 5x7 hoop. The instructions recommend you cut your blocks down to 9. Using this ruler, I am EASILY, CONFIDENTLY able to correctly center and trim down my embroidered/appliqued blocks. Notice on the ruler there are marks for INCHES in SOLID LINES and 1/4 INCH in DOTTED LINES. Neat little one inch square in the center of the ruler helps you align your ruler to your block/design. If I cant mess it up, you surely wont. It actually makes sense! I really feel like I have accomplished something these last few days, figuring out this 12-1/2in x 12-1/2in Square it Up Ruler by Creative Grids. I thought I had done something by making this appliqued HOP TO IT in queen size, where the orig pattern was about a throw size or so ... this ruler has had my goat for far too long ~ but I got her now buddy !! Theres no stopping me now !! :-)) Get one. Make sure its made by Creative Grids. Youll be glad you did. (No I dont work for them, but I sure do like their products)

There is no other quilting tool other than creative grids. I add more and more square up rulers as I go. Why? Because it makes life just easier. I love them.

This picture is miss leading the ruler is actually 12.5x12.5 square, just as the verbal description states. Dont go by the picture!! I am replacing my old 12.5x12.5 ruler with this one, I love it that much!!

I love these rulers. It is clear and easy to read. The grippers are a help.

Works great for the Granny Square quilt blocks

Broke my old ruler and couldn’t wait to replace with Creative Grids! Easy to read and love the non-skid movement on the fabric when trimming or cutting!

This makes fussy cutting a breeze!

The marking is perfect for centering the design on a t shirt and cutting it to make a quilt square

it had no instruction and the numbers are not in inches, need to watch a utube video to learn how to use it. would not buy again.

great ruler to have so you can square up multiple sizes
