Creative Grids Rulers
Everyone,
I have been reading about the Creative Grids rulers on the board & decided to order some. They are fantastic! no slipping when cutting my strips, easy to read and line up on my cutting mat.
Thank you for posting your information on them. i am very happy that I followed your advise. i learn so much from reading this board!

I started using them too. Have others and didn't realize how much better my cutting and piecing are now that I'm using the Creative Grid rulers. Just wish I knew about them sooner and wouldn't have wasted my money on the others.

As I am needing to replace my rulers, (and I have the money to do it) I am going to the Creative Grids. They are really good at not slipping on the fabric, and the lines are easy to read. Next to replace is my 6x24.

What would be the 3 most common sizes of creative grid rulers that you would use that seem to serve the majority of your needs? I am thinking of getting 3: the 6.5 square, 8.5 x 24 (vs 6.5 x 24), and a 12.5 square OR 15.5 square. Are these the sizes you grab the most?

I have a 6.5 x 24.5 CG that I use more than any other. I'm not sure if I would find the extra 2" a help or a hindrance. I have never found that I wished this ruler was wider. For wider measurements I go to my 12.5" square. I use my 6" square a lot for squaring up smaller sizes and doing trim work. On more than one occasion I have wished I had a bigger square than 12.5"
So I would say those are good sizes you have picked out. Definitely the sizes (or closest approximation) of the ones I use most.
