It has slots for marking the cutting line when placed on a square from corner to corner and then you draw a line on either side so that in one placement you mark your 3 Lines for sewing and cutting HSTs. There was no doub about where to sew and cut. Easier on my eyes ( that are getting wonky these days) than having to move and adjust a small ruler. Just an idea....

Yep, this little tool is one of the first "gadgets" I got when I started quilting. Love it! I don't mark in the middle slot (really not necessary) and sew inside the marked sewing lines to get HSTs the size needed.
