Default Can't find a replacement O'lipfa 12.5" square inch ruler

My original O'lipfa 12.5 square inch ruler, one of my "go-to" tools is losing its markings and I have been looking for a replacement to no avail. This particular ruler has square on it rather than just straight lines and angles lines as well. I've attached a photo for reference. Anyone know where I can find one? Thanks for your input.

Is this it?

It's out-of-stock there. My bet is it has been discontinued. You still may be able to find one on eBay or Etsy.

Edit: I found this one on eBay. If you really want it, I would get that one.

Also try http://www.barnesandnoble.com/p/olip...2-1-2/22243251 -it has the squares on it. Or a different brand http://www.amazon.com/Fiskars-187210...rs+quilting+12 .

good luck!

last time I saw one of these it was at Joanne fabrics- I don't know if their website may have it-but maybe. I have the 15.5" one and am pretty sure I bought it at Joanne's.

This ruler has been one of my favorites for years; I'm sorry to hear how hard it is to find now. It does appear that it is no longer made.

Last year I asked That Patchwork Place to make a 12.5" one like their Bias Square 8 and they said they were considering it. Let's contact them with requests and encouragement!

Prism99.....nice try and I appreciate your effort, but that was not the one I'm looking for......
Sheri.a......you nailed it!!! I would never have thought of Barnes & Nobles for a quilting ruler.....one available and I got it; will be here this week. Thanks; I can always count on this board for just about anything I need.
Your girls are the BEST!
