Creative Grids® 60° Diamond Tiny Ruler – Precision Miniatures & Hexagon Accents
The Creative Grids® 60° Diamond Tiny Ruler is a specialized precision tool designed for the intricate world of small-scale quilting. Perfectly suited for miniature quilts, “Inner City” designs, and “Tumbling Blocks,” this ruler allows you to cut 60-degree diamonds, hexies, and triangles up to 3 ½ inches in height. Despite its small stature, it packs all the punch of its larger counterparts, featuring the patented Creative Grids® non-slip grip to ensure that even the tiniest fabric pieces stay perfectly aligned during cutting.
Why This Tiny Ruler is a Big Deal:
- Patented Non-Slip Grip: The exclusive gripper on the back keeps the ruler from sliding on small fabric scraps—critical for safety and accuracy when working with miniature units.
- Versatile 60° Geometry: Cut 60-degree diamonds, equilateral triangles, and even hexagons (by rotating the ruler) with ease.
- Perfect for Scraps: Designed to maximize your fabric stash, this ruler is the ideal size for cutting diamonds from leftover strips and “honey buns.”
- Blunted Tips: Features “smart corners” where the tips are blunted at the 1/4″ seam allowance line, ensuring your pieces align perfectly without bulky overlaps or “dog ears.”
- Crystal Clear Markings: High-contrast black and white lines allow for perfect fussy cutting of tiny motifs for “I Spy” quilts or mosaic designs.
