Double !!!! ! I think I get it! Love rulers, really trying to think about what I buy though. Is it a one time use thing, or will I use it again and again (like my June Tailor Shape Cut - have 2 of those - love them both, use them on every quilt).

I have the Fons and Porter ruler for half and quarter square triangles. BUT - I don't like sewing on the diagonal (that would be bias, right?). And this one is sewing on the cut diagonal. No math though, I like that.

Have considered the Wonder Cut ruler. I can sew straight seams all day long. Like that you sew first THEN cut.

Like this one as well, even though it means sewing on the diagonal. It is still a square when you sew on the diagonal - and I can follow lines well.

Hmmmm...am going to be thinking about this one (as well as the Wonder Cut). Looking forward to seeing your pictures, Bella Boo, when you get your replacement ruler!
