Default Anyone have any of the tools from this site?

The site is called Guidelines 4 Quilting. http://www.guidelines4quilting.com/U...ashbuster.html I am a newer quilter and would like to know if their items are really worth the investment. Any and all comments would be welcome. Thank you

I bought their Prep-Tool and Seam Guides and love them! Their Prep-Tool allows you to place their Seam Guides a scant 1/4" from your needle. I think their prices are very reasonable. I prefer their Seam Guides over any other item as they are very nice looking and leave no sticky residue. I've been using their tools for a few years now. I did have their rulers but gave them to a gal here on the board.

Just looked and yes I purchased the ruler connectors. Could you visit one of the festivals they are attending to look at product. Being a newbie I would think you possible need some other things first. Personel point.

I have all of their rulers because I thought they would help me as I am at rotary cutting. I find, even with them, am still lousy at rotary cutting! I would suggest not buying them but do like the 1/4 inch measuring too...

I bought the grip strips to put under my rulers. They keep them from slipping. I don't have to walk my fingers to get accurate cuts. I love them, no slipping.

Thanks everyone. Sounds like I will buy the grip strips. I have a hard time walking my hands up the ruler.
