Yes, I have and have used this ruler. It takes forty blades to make a Dresden plate. It was my first Dresden plate quilt, and measured 47" across, and evidently I needed to learn a way to keep my stitching accurate since the Dresden came out a "volcano" that I spent a couple hours taming to flat. Sew from wide edge to narrow in the most important thing I learned.
The first quilt was a commissioned quit for an office. Here is is.
The second time I used it was so much better. Here is a picture of the second use. Both had added appliqué.
