Some times I have a "duhhhhhhhh" moment.
Now that we have the orientation of the ruler cleared up, can I piggyback with another question, please? I made one with the rulers like ")(," and I absolutely loved it. However, the ends, though covered with tape, wore through the fabric fairly soon. I'm thinking maybe I cut the rulers too long. How much space do you leave in the casing at the ends of the ruler?
