After one use, I gave the L'il Twister away. Too much waste. I thought I'd never use the Deb Tucker Wing Clipper again after a class several years ago, but I finally used it last week for the first time. It was actually helpful!

I sure don't need another special ruler, but after seeing that I just may have to try it.

My friend and I call it our Acrylic Draw where rulers go and are lost forever...I have so many still wrapped who knows what's in there...Just another addiction to our saying "Someday I'll need this for something"

Sounds like I'm in pretty good company ladies!! I'm a ruler/template junkie and have more than I should have. It's almost as bad as shoes ... can't have just one pair now can we???

I only have one that I have not used at all "yet". It is the folded corner clipper. I am trying to replace the majority of my rulers with Quilter Select right now. Hoping Santa will get me a couple more. I even made a couple of my own rulers. I went to the local hardware store and had him cut me the plexiglass in the angles I needed and then I smooth out any burs being careful to keep the straight lines and then with an exacto knife I scored markes for the different 1/4" marks that I needed and took a thin Smartie marker and highlighted those scored marks. I use one of these more frequently than you can imagine. The cost to make my favorite ruler was under $1. My the one I have never used cost me $8. and for a 24"x6" Quilter Select it was $37. I wish I was talented enough to make more of my rulers as it sure would be cost effective. Here is a pic of one of the ones I made for myself.

birangle. bought in the 90's. never used, sold with most of my rulers a few years ago when my eye problems kicked in. Thinking about it, I think the tri-recs I love probably does the same thing anyway.

I have the wing clipper too (In my defense … the Quilt Store said I ordered it but I don't remember that but to keep good relations I paid for it) … X-Block - and a Quilt in the day slotted ruler that I bought at quilt festival or Road to California … need to look up the video's … they looked so easy and helpful I couldn't resist! Love the twister … I have made several wall hangings with that one.
