I bought this ruler from FQS because of this video. I love it, and I love FQS!

I’m watching this video because I’ve just bought this ruler. I knew about from watching other video of yours where you were using this ruler. Barely wait to use it. 🤗

I bought this ruler after dealing with lymphedema in my right arm after radiation. And I love it! It allowed me to continue my quilting projects with beautiful results! I now use it as my go-to ruler for strip- cutting. It never fails to produce precise cuts. Thank you for a great product!

THIS has improved my craft of quilting better than any other tool! Helped me square HSTs- You know how they can get wonky! A MUST HAVE for quilters!

This has to be one of the greatest quilting rulers on het market. I have owned the XL and Square rollers for a while now and to be honest it wasn't until I made one of Gudrun's quilt patterns that I understood just how amazing these rulers are. I am sure that these will be my "go-to" rulers for all future quilts!

My husband bought this for my birthday it arrived yesterday can’t wait to have a go!

Great video, we all buy rulers and never get proper instruction on how to use them. Looking forward to more of your videos

I never comment on anything, but I’m making an exception for this ruler. I love to sew, and I like making quilts. Unfortunately, I am a terrible cutter, despite my best efforts. I’ve tried every ruler out there, including other slotted rulers, and I’ve still had inaccurate results. As such, I have several quilt kits that I’ve never begun because I dread the cutting process. The Creative Grids Non-Slip Stripology has changed my life. Over the past few days, I’ve easily cut out accurate pieces for my quilt. I wish this ruler could handle any size strip. When I had to leave the ruler to trim 5” squares down to 4 ⅞ “ squares, I used the Itty Bitty Eights XL Rectangle ruler, but my squares were still off. I’d love to see a 7/8ths line added to the Stripology ruler to move it and cut pieces into 7/8” increments like using it to cut 1/4” increments. Now that this ruler has removed most of my cutting stress, I will finally make all of those beautiful quilts that I’ve been avoiding! Thank you for this beneficial video!

I just bought one of these Gudrun and I can’t wait to use it! Thank you for simplifying this ruler!

I love this ruler! It is heavy enough and with the backing it does not move! This allows me to cut while sitting and thus saves my back!

This was incredible! One thing you helped me with was understanding why I get elbows when I fold my fabric. I could not figure out how to fix that! Now I know and this ruler is going on my wish list!

Thank you I forgot I could square up my 12 ?12 squares that I just did with my other rulers. :( OK I have your post card in front of me on my table along with your ruler that is always on the table to remind me going forward.Thank goodness for You Tube where I can watch you do what I need to do with my fabulous ruler.

I have the Squared, but now I totally need the XL! Thanks for showing how easy it is!

Oh my gosh, THANK YOU! Learning!!!!!!😊

I love this ruler. I place a weight (antique irons are great) on it to keep it securely in place. No tool provides better accuracy and productivity in the sewing room in my view.

I've had my ruler for several years but didn't have much success with it. Now I know why. I wasn't using it properly! Thanks for the great video.

I got one of these for Christmas and I LOVE IT! About to use it to square my blocks now! Thanks for this video too!

I just got mine today. What a great tool for those of us who quilt. It was expensive, but I think in the long run I will save some money cutting my own strips. Hardest part is picking out the fabrics that go together.

😱😱 I didn’t know about the 1/4”. I keep wishing you’d come out with one 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️😊

This is a great video!

I just ordered one of these amazing rulers. I still wonder where the measurement point is on each line. I assume its the centre of each line, which means we have to pick to always align with the bottom edge of all lines or the top edge of all lines (or left edge or right edge) when cutting in the same direction. If anyone here has the ruler in their hands, it would be great to know if I'm correct with this or not.

I’m definitely getting this ruler ..

Thank you for helping me learn how to use this ruler. I will give it a try. Question, is there a particular ruler you can recommend to help make star legs. Mine are also wonky and just don't line up. Thank you. Terry

I’m on my way to QuiltCon in Raleigh, NC tomorrow (2/24) I think I saw your name in the vendor list, I hope you have some for sale there.

Thank you

We don't hv it in Malaysia. I wish to get one. I'm a patchwork beginner.

I just got my stripology xl, so excited my hubby said you spent how much, I told him it was money from my daughter for mothers day. I already cut 2 1/4 strips messed up lined up the quarter inch wrong, but figured out. But now I want to square up 10 1/4 inch not sure how to do can you explain please thanks

Love your style! I bought the ruler, patterns and arrow stickers! I loved them so much, that I bought a pack for my friend. The hardest thing about the ruler is storing it, so it does not bend. So any tips on that? 😍

I have a peg board in my sewing room that I keep my cutting rulers hung on, as well as my rotary cutters- out of of the grandkids reach! I’m grateful for the set up to allow it. Prior to that, I had it in a large zip up travel bag for rulers and mats I bought at joAnns that I tucked between the wall and my sewing desk when not in use to protect it. (Before grands) ;) you could also put it under a guest bed along with the cutting mat. I’ve heard of a lady storing her cutting mat between a spare mattress and box springs, I suppose it could go there too! Perhaps she was hiding her sewing purchases in general now that I think on that one… but I digress. Funny aside anyway… 😂 I do love my stripology ruler and I hand her proudly! Thanks for the video on all the additional things to be done with it than stripping!

Love all these the products!!! Can I cut rectangles? such as 4.5x6.5, 4x12.5. Thank you

You can do that with the Stripology Mini

I’ve visited your website and would like to buy one but as a new quilter I don’t know which one to get.... Also I’m a bit confused with measurements. If the pattern asks for 2 inch square do you cut a 2 1/2 inch square to allow for the seams?

I can not find the XL ruler that has the white 1/2" block on it. the ones on the website don't show the white blocks on the right side of the rulers

Are there a 1/8” increments on this ruler? I have patterns asking for, example, 3 7/8” strips etc…

Can this ruler be used to cut 3.75" equilateral triangles? Or can it just be used for full and half sizes?

Does the Stripology XL ruler give 1/8" increment markings? If not, what stripology ruler has those markings?

Hi Carolyn! The Stripology rulers do not have the 1/8" markings.

I cannot line up these blocks from left to right in the half inch section no matter what I do. I end up in tears because I cannot figure it out. I have read everything and watched everything. I must just be stupid.

I hope I figure it out soon, but when I place my rotary cutter in the teardrop and proceed to cut through, I’m not getting to the fabric. Some partial cuts but other than that, it’s not making it through. Rewatching video for angle - still not getting through - concerned that repeated tries are damaging the ruler. Changed blade on rotary cutter too. Yikes.

This is exactly my problem. It will not cut a full strip. Someone here mentioned it can't be used on a table that is not perfectly flat. I noticed my table depresses a bit when I put pressure on it, so I may dig out the ruler again, and try it on a flat board, or something. I was so sad I couldn't get it to work.

I would love the 1/4” chart, but I could not find it on your website. Can you help me find it?

Hello Julieta! Are you asking about the cutting mat? If so, here is the link: www.fatquartershop.com/creative-grids-24-x-36-cutting-mat

I think there is no easier or more accurate way to cut fabric. Btw, you must have a level flat table or countertop surface. I had a little trouble with my cuts being a tiny bit short. Lay gently, don't stretch the fabric and be certain your cutting table isn't slightly concave when you press down on it.

The cutting slits are on the half inch mark, so if the edge of your fabric is on the zero line, there is no cutting slit at the 2 1/4 inch point.

You can...just have to use a little math to figure out where to cut if squaring up that small of a block. But it’s such a big ruler for such a tiny block. If you can go the extra mile and get the stripology mini, that’s more smaller and recommended for easier way to whip out tiny 2 1/2 squares. Did I also mention the mini would be lighter too.
