Shout out for Angela's Ideal Quilt Guide

[anniemueller]

So I bought Angela Huffman's Ideal Quilt Guide, the Angel Edition (8") when she announced it a few months ago.  Yesterday I decided to give it a try, to make bead board on a 7" border.  Normally I chalk all the lines on first and use my Itty Bitty ruler.  

 

The Ideal Quilt Guide is truly well named....it is IDEAL.  Wow.  I am so impressed!  It is just the right length, it stays in place without being obnoxious to move.  I only had to make small marks outside the border because I was being picky about the spacing.  The ruler has perfect lines etched so you can square it to the quilt seams.

 

I love it!!!!  It's my new favorite ruler  

 

Thanks Angela!!

I'm so glad you like them Annie! Have you tried using them upside down with the sticky bit stuck to your hand so it becomes a paddle that you don't have to hold? Karen McTavish started using it that way and I was floored. I'd never thought of turning it upside down. 

 

You can find the ruler over on my website here.
