Ideal seam guide
Has anyone ever seen or used this. Sounds great but is a bit pricey.
Would appreciate your opinions
Thanks.

I had one when it first came out and it didn't work for me. The sticky side stayed stuck for about a minute and never did stick again. I needed to use the cut out side because if I didn't it would be on top of my feed dogs and it was pretty unstable. If your sewing machine is set into a table or has an acrylic surround and it's not exactly even it won't work. I wrote to the company and got no response. I think I paid a little less for it; it only came with one size guide.
I'm sticking with Command strips - not because they're cheaper but because they work better!
If you do order it, I'd love to hear your experience with it. It may be operator error on my part.

It looks like a great idea. The only way to know if it will work for you is to try it. I use Command strips too. I put two together and that makes a perfect height edge for me. I have a machine I use for piecing so the strips stay on that machine but are easy to remove when they get to looking sad.

I had only one experience with Massdrop aand it was not a good one. The necklace I purchased took a very long time to get to me, but they charged my card right away. And, the product, when it finally came, was cheesey and certainly not worth what I paid.
Proceed with extreme caution.
Sorry, I'm not familiar with the rulers offered.
