Sheri Butler Posted April 2, 2011 Report Share Posted April 2, 2011 I ordered Deloa's Rope a Dopes, the full set. I think i'm going to use these ALOT! 3 sizes!!!!!!! 1 1/2" , 2", and 3". Awsome Idea Deloa! & Thank you for for making such a useful tool, and small enough that feeble hands like mine, will be able to hold them! THEY CAME TODAY IN THE MAIL AND I AM SUPER STOKED TO USE THESE PUPPIES! DELOA...I THINK THESE WILL BE MY FAVORITE LITTLE RULERS OF ALL TIME SO FAR! TY! TY! TY!

laurashogren Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 De Loa was here today, I got to see her rope a dope, and her 2 new tools, she has a awesome circle tool and heart tool, she said she will have them at mqs next week. She gifted me a heart tool She sure is a nice person. Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSewSimple Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 DeLoa's tools always seem to be well thought out. Her Castle has replaced several of my rulers. Her boomerang is a must have! IMHO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeri Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Those look like they would be a great addition to anyone's ruler collection. Rope borders can be soo frustrating and those make them look easy . Will be looking forward to trying them out At MQS in May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mswings Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 I bought her rope a dope ruler and her appliquide. She also has a ruler that helps do the corners for the rope a dope. That was awesome when she demostrated it. About to put a quilt on the frame that I can play with it. She is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BunkHouseQuilts Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I have the set also and use them a lot! You will love them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 You who have the rope-a-dopes, did you get the corner tool, also? I just got a few of her tools with one rope-a-dope set included. Wondering since I bought the corner tool, and have not been able to try them out yet, how do you like them? Does it become automatic to turn the corner without using the corner tool? I think it would be beast to use the corner tool to mark, then the template to stitch it in, and as yet, LOL, have no opinion, except I'm sure it is do-able. All of her tools work great.

BunkHouseQuilts Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 I don't have the corner tool and have not had problems turning the corners. When I got mine, I didn't know there was a corner tool. You will love them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibbyG Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 At MQX East she had a sampler where she used the small rope a dope in the sashing and made it weave. As she came down it went under the across sashing. Then the next down row it went over. It was really a cool idea! I don't know how she thinks of all of them.

Quilting Heidi Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 I don't have the corner tool either and dind't have any problems. Once you get the feel for the ruler it is a piece of cake. Just practice using a white board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primitive1 Posted June 13, 2012 Report Share Posted June 13, 2012 Libby I missed that one but what a great idea - I think Deloa should come up with another book using her rope ideas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RitaR Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Thanks for the replies.. Guess I was muddle headed when I posted the message. Heidi, M, I'd really forgotten the kids color papers or the White Board. Illness and then meds have me half talking/thinking, is that better than half not talking/unable to think? lol.. I have one corner tool and rope-a-dope to play with.. just haven't found time or energy. Too many things seem to take precidence in my list of " GOT-A-DO'S..
