Creative Grids® 3 ½” x 12 ½” Rectangle Ruler – The Precision Tool for Small Spaces
The Creative Grids® 3 ½” x 12 ½” Ruler is the ultimate “handy” ruler for every quilter’s toolbox. While large rulers are great for cutting yardage, this compact size is much easier to manage for smaller, more detailed tasks. It is specifically designed to be the perfect width for cutting standard 3 ½” strips and the perfect length for squaring up blocks or trimming segments. Because it is a Creative Grids® ruler, it features the patented non-slip grip, ensuring that even this smaller tool stays locked in place for every cut.
Why This Compact Ruler is a Studio Essential:
- Superior Maneuverability: Its narrow profile makes it much easier to pick up and move around your cutting mat for repetitive tasks like trimming seam allowances.
- Patented Non-Slip Grip: The exclusive gripper on the back keeps the ruler from sliding, providing safety and accuracy even when cutting through multiple layers of fabric.
- Perfect for Small Piecing: Ideal for cutting the small rectangles and squares found in intricate patterns like Log Cabins, Courthouse Steps, and Rail Fence quilts.
- High-Contrast Markings: Signature black and white dashed lines show up clearly on both light and dark fabrics, with a 1-inch grid and 1/8-inch increments for extreme precision.
- Angle Accuracy: Includes a 45-degree angle marking, perfect for trimming smaller Half-Square Triangles or cutting bias pieces.
