Hi all,
I'm working on a Disappearing 9 patch. Have been tempted to buy a larger ruler to square up my blocks but am wondering how much use I'd get out of it.
Thanks,

I have a 16 1/2" Creative Grids Square ruler. That's the biggest with measuring lines. I have larger size square rulers from 17 to 22 that I had the local glass shop cut for me. No lines but I drew an X from corner to corner.

I have seen a 24". Can't remember who made it. You could Google and look for it.

My largest square ruler is 15". Now that I see nativetexan found a 20" one at Joann's--I'll have to find that! The large ones are better for squaring up corners of quilts. Hubby gets upset when I use his carpenter's squares.
