Squaring up?
#1
What's the best way to "square up" my blocks before assembling the quilt top if I don't own a square template? All I have is a 6" x 24" quilting rular.
Thanks very much for your help!

ARRRRGH!
I'm in Canada, so the grid on my cutting mat is Metric! It's a generic crafting cutting mat that I already had before I started quilting, you see.
So much for that plan! Anyone else have any suggestions?
Thanks!

I'm just full of no advice today. Like you, I've just always used my ruler or make the perfect size square of taped together papers (for printer). I guess that's sort of a temporary homemade template.

I have my own carpenter's square for the same reason. If you're going to make your own grid, use freezer paper, but if you can get your hands on a carpenter's square in inches, you're in fine shape.
