Omnigrid 1 x 6, Clear Quilting and Sewing R1 1 6-Inch Ruler, 1 x 6, Yellow

Until I received and started using this small ruler, I didnt know how much I needed it! It sits next to my sewing machine and is used for every project - from measuring a scant 1/4 for quilting, to centering the needle, to mitering corners, marking straight lines on fabric and assuring accurate width for seam allowances. Its by far the most useful tool I have, except for my sewing machine itself.

The thickness of this handy little tool was surprising and unexpected...I love it! I use this in the kitchen for baking. If your recipe says the dough for the scones should be patted out to 1 thick or any other recipe gives you a measurement as a guide, youve got this! Theres no flexibility so it wont bend and give you an ambiguous measurement. Very handy and not like anything else Ive seen.

I avoid purchasing Omnigrid rulers because the yellow lines are too thick, making it harder to measure. I was in a rush, however, so I purchased this ruler.

I’ve been searching for a small size ruler and so happy with this 1x6 inches

I make handsewn and hand pieced quilts. I keep one of these beside me as I work to check accuracy as I sew and I highly recommend it as one of the best tools for hand sewing quilts and other projects. I suppose it would be equally useful to machine sewers. Accuracy is everything in precise piecing so I would not want to be without it. :-).

Good for when I dont need to wrestle with my big rulers.

This was a replacement for one that was lost. My favourite of my set of rulers for sewing.

Use it all the time

I lost my original one and was lost w/o it by the sewing machine. Im no longer exasperated wondering if my seam is a true 1/4 or if the points of two things are of equal distance. Yes, Im a quilter and these things matter a lot.
