I'm not particular about which ruler I grab. So far, no issues mixing brands. My problem is making quilts in a group. In our church quilt group, only two of us are willing to sew. We do not have the same 1/4". I use a screw on metal dam set where i want it, the other uses her presser foot which to me is wider than 1/4". It makes it hard to work on the same quilt. I know I am the one who could change most easily, but when I draft a pattern and do the cutting, I use 1/4" seam. That would be much harder to change.
Machines? I have three set up in my family room, two are used interchangeably for piecing and I have no problems. The same with the one I left at the church. All three have the little metal screw on guide. The Elna isn't allowed to quilt, but she does everything else.
