I have this ruler, but I find I don't use it very often. If someone else has it, would you give me some ideas on what you use it for? Thanks.

I have one - I found it easy to use when I was cutting a bunch of 2.5" strips. With that guide on the back to butt up against the fabric, I didn't have to LOOK at the lines so much to make sure I was straight. Other than that time, I haven't used it much. I like my Omnigrid/Omnigrids better.

I just use some masking tape to mark the lines when I'm using my Omni Grid. Makes cutting much easier and I'm less prone to mistakes. I use the blue masking tape cause it doesn't leave a residue and can be reused quite a while before replacing. Also it has better visibility than the other.
