Hi all
I've established now by searching previous threads and the kindness of someone pm-ing me that I need a 6 1/2 " x 24 inch ruler and a 12 1/2" square for my first rulers. I went into my local quilt shop, but the prices almost had me falling over. How can a ruler be so expensive?!
(I'm in the UK, so we don't have a JoAnn's). I found an online shop, but the price for the two rulers is still £30, which is around $50 I guess. Does that sound like a lot? The reason I ask is that I'm visiting the US this summer (can't wait... all those fabric and quilting shops :D ) and so I wonder whether it may be better to wait and get the rulers there. I'd hate to find they are really much cheaper. I've got so much to learn, that I kind of feel I can wait if there's a big difference in the prices.
Any advice?
