How cool is that! I might need one of those.

I've been doing this for years. I saw the laser in DH's shop and thought Oh Boy it's perfect. I claimed it. Not as simple as it looks though. If quilt is almost square to begin with it works great. If it is off a lot then you may lose a lot of border or have to cut a block and then it looks wonky.

It looks like a nice way to square up if I owned a laser square. Since I don’t, I will just continue on using my rulers and big square ruler in the corners.

Or, you could use it to square it up first, then trim it! :)
