these rulers rule!
I'm a little off kilter, a member of the family is not well. Ok, so it's not a human or even living member, but still, one that is important to general well being of the household, ok, just me then. My Bernina is winging it's way to Berninaland---it's motherboard has gone ka-plu-ey. I know....a moment of silence please for our dear departed motherboard.
So in steps my travel machine----my little Janome. (See, you can love more than one company) Thank goodness for this little gem! Everyone should have a backup machine, especially when sewing on a regular basis helps to maintain some level of sanity.
I've been piecing a class sample for the last two days and have realized my respect for the square ruler.
Goodness knows I don't need anymore fabric, so I've been collecting all sorts of templates and rulers. I now have the square rulers in MANY sizes. I'm a firm believer in squaring up your blocks along the way so having a square ruler for every size block I'm doing has certainly made this task a whole lot easier. And what a difference it makes to the finished quilt! Things line up easier and the quilt lay flat when it was all done.
So ruler collectors unite! Collect those rulers, square ones, long ones, short ones....And be sure to put them in a place where you can find them----finding it when you need it (before you buy another one) is half the battle!
Hugs and Stitches!
