    True cut rulers

    I am need of a new ruler. I have been using a omnigrid ruler. The markings are fading off from wear. Has anyone tried the true cut ruler brand? Thank you in advance for your opinions.

    I don't have one but prefer rulers with the degree markings. I like to be able to see through my rulers.

    I still prefer either Creative Grids or Omnigrid rulers for the main rulers I use. Bought one of the True Cut's but don't like it.
    Have fun quilting! If it isn't fun, you will miss a lot.

    The Omingrip rulers have the green gripper on the back and it does wear off eventually. I have already replaced my 8.5" square. The Omnigrid rulers have the yellow/black lines which I have had since they originally came out and they have no wear on them.

    My 8.5" was one of these green ones. I absolutely cannot see through them. I finally pitched it in the garbage.

    I hate my true cut ruler. It's not all the way clear so it's hard to see through it. There are a lot of cutouts which also make it hard to read the measurements. Mine is the 6 x 24 one.
