Where can I find this quilting tool?
#1
I was just watching Eleanor Burns Quilt in a Day program. She was putting together her American Barns quilt with a checkerboard border. She was using a wonderful strip quilting tool that I love. I've spent a lot of time online looking for it, but can't find it anywhere.
It was a large sheet with slots 2 1/2 inches apart. You could cut accurate 2 1/2 in strips in just seconds with this ruler, template, cutting tool or whatever it's called. It looked like the measurements were 24x24.
I found something similar on the Quilt in Day website:

but I know what Eleanor used was larger because she folded her fabric in half and was able to cut the entire length of fabric and it was also square.
While I was looking I also found this great resource:

I hope someone knows where to find this because it would certainly save a lot of time while ensuring accuracy. Thanks for any help you can give me.

Sounds like one of the June Taylor rulers. I ordered one from Amazon, then found a smaller one at Walmart the next week. Never thought to look there. She has a nice website with good hoe to use videos as well.
