Sheri Butler Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Did you get the rope a dopes? They are AWSOME, if I say so my self. I have the whole set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabelongarm Posted June 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 No, didn't get the rope a dope ones, but there is always tomorrow!!! Joanne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandmaLKB Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I LOVE that Castle ruler. Use it all the time. It's so handy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quilting Heidi Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 You can't go wrong with the boomerangs. Sheri is right that the rope-a-dopes are fantastic too, in fact all of Deloa's rulers are among my favorites and most used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is Deloa's Castle ruler and yes it will make SID easier. It also make doing lines easier. It is designed so that you can easily line up with the previous stitched line. She also has a ruler called The Little One and it is my all time favorite. I use it on every quilt I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSewSimple Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I use Deloa's castle more than any other tool! I use her boomerang every week! I think they are the best around. Joanne, let us know how you like your Pathways book by Sally Terry. I almost bought that this past week. It sounds like it may be good! Janna, if you don't have the castle you need to add it to your list (near the top). I think you will really like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primitive1 Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I have the appliguide and the boomerangs and use them most of the time....I have an itty bitty so I haven't tried the castle ruler and I did buy her rope a dopes but haven't had a chance to try them out yet...I just love her rulers - she gets the prize in my book for making the most user friendly rulers! You can't go wrong with her rulers!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraJ Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I couldn't quilt without my Appliguide and I use it for so many things. It's awesome for outlining ANYTHING from flowers in the fabric, applique, etc. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connieb Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I gotta stop reading all these post. It just makes me want MORE toys. I love the boomerang and the Little one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little House Creations Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 ooooh! You really did out shop me!!! I got one boomerang, the castle and rope-a-dope plus the book CD. Wasn't Deloa just the best?? Bev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibbyG Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I see you've enjoyed DeLoa's classes as much as I did. However, I do have more of her toys because I also bought the rope a dopes! You'll love using them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrandmaLKB Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 I have the 2" Rope a Dope............It worked great once I figured out the backtracking. I did it wrong for a little bit then had a "DUH" moment and it worked much better............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Linda S Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 Cool! Looks like you know how to treat yourself. You'll find all of those very useful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmilner Posted June 13, 2011 Report Share Posted June 13, 2011 Thanks for sharing the picture of your purchases;) I'm a newbie so I had no idea what Deloa's rulers are or who Deloa is. Now I can kick myself because I grew up in Edmonton and could have stayed with my sister and taken in the show (and maybe a class with Deloa). I went to Deloa's website and watched some of her video clips using her rulers. Wow! Thanks to this great forum you also informed me of the MQX West in Portland,Or in October. I think taking a class with Deloa would be a good place for me to start. Meanwhile, I'm placing an order online for the Little One, castle ruler,appliguide, and rope a dope:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
