I know there are a few specialized rulers out there now for this, but the old fashioned way works for me...1 rectangle, 2 squares 1/3rd smaller for corners......but I must confess, I also have EB's FG template.....and the GO die....

I like the Deb Tucker ruler - all sizes in one ruler

I second the Deb Tucker ruler. Though I do make them larger and trim down.

I personally prefer the Lazy Girls Flying Geese ruler - it also does half square triangles and quarter square triangles. It's easy to read and use.
I can't comment on the Deb Tucker ruler as I've never used it.

If you use the "No-waste" method, you won't need a ruler. Unless the two end triangles are different colors.

I have done the 'no waste method' and it is good, however, the Deb Tucker Wing Clipper ensures perfect geese every time without cutting off the points!

I like Lazy Girl no waste ruler for flying geese. Fabric is too expensive to waste anything.

I have Deb Tucker ruler but I found another I like better. Easier to use for me. It's the Folded Corner Clipper.
