Are your rulers shrinking??

Did you know that your acrylic cutting rulers can get smaller over time??

As you make more and more cuts against the edge of a ruler, you eventually shave thin layers of acrylic, making the ruler less accurate as you cut further.

I make it a rule (no pun intended) to replace my two main rulers (24-inch and 6.5-inch square) every three or four years….

Hopefully, this helps my cutting to be more accurate, making my piecing more accurate as well….at least that is the way it is supposed to work!!

As you can see, I love using rulers from “Quilter’s Rule”.

What is your favorite ruler??
