Kooklabel,
I am hand piecing and have to mark my 1/4" and there is a really good ruler/marking tool for this. I'm going to try and include a picture...I've already forgotten how I posted the picture of my blocks just yesterday :roll: So I'm practicing with this pic...I keep thinking I'm going to click on the wrong thing and look later to see every picture I've ever taken posted here :oops: I guess I'll get more comfortable as I do it more often. Anyway, back to the ruler.
It's just a small 1/4" square piece of acrylic that I got at Joann's-I can't remember how much it was but it couldn't have been much for me to have gotten it. The ruler in the back has nothing to do with it I just put it in the pic so you could get a size prospective. I really like it because if I've cut a little bit crooked when I'm joining two pieces it kind of becomes my new straight line. Hope this might help you.
I love this section because I'm seeing a lot of my questions answered before I even ask them :thumbup:
