My Omnigrid is only 6 inches with no 1/2 inch after and I find that a pain. Of course, the 6 1/2 inch ruler I love is a different brand. As long as I have been quilting and quilting with my friends none of of us has heard about using the same brand of ruler through a whole project.

About rulers-----------I used a Olfa ruler and a June Tailor ruler on the same project-----------about a 1/4" off in a 4 inch piece
