    I have only the Tucker Trimmer and the wing Clipper and love them both. I use the Tucker trimmer in almost every quilt squaring up blocks. It seems silly when you can square up with any ruler, but it goes so fast when you have exact inch and half inch lines and not everything in between. The Wing Clipper I love for flying geese. You can make them any size and trim down to the size you want. Perfect

    Good thing is that many of her rulers can be used for many, many patterns. The Wing Clipper, for instance, helps you make perfect Flying Geese that you can use in any project. Check them out, they may be worth it if you do a lot.

    Tucker Trimmer and Wing Clipper are on my list. I've been avoiding flying geese cause I can never get them right but plan to give them another go once I get the Clipper.

    I was just watching Eleanor Burns on YouTube and she said she doesn't like geese. Hmm, and she even has her own flying geese ruler. But the video was promoting Acuquilt so that might have something to do with it.

    Thank you for all the info on these rulers. It seems they have a big thumbs up from those of you who use them. I shall go ahead and make a purchase with confidence now.

    I bought her flying geese rulers and they work like a charm! This was before the day of Acuquilt. Eleanor's method of sewing and cutting uses a tad more fabric, but they end up larger than needed and then you trim them to the right size. Love those rulers!

    I have many of her rulers and always feel like I'm cheating when my blocks come out so perfect. I couldn't be as accurate without these rulers.

    Don't hold back. Her rulers are great. Usually at the shows there is a special discount when purchasing several.

    Same here. I try to stay on a budget. I don't sell my projects. And the patterns I have for the flying geese and Hunter's star are working quite well for me. I don't need perfection since I'm not perfect. If I were selling mine for a profit, it would be different. Not saying her rulers are not good and worth the money. Just not worth it for me.
