I also don't line up my fabric on cutting mats. I use the double ruler method and most of the time it works out well
peace :D

I did that once, one ruler is 6.5 wide and the other is 6, what a difference that 1/2 inch can make. have put the 6.5 one away so I really have to search for it and hopefully will remember the next time I use it.

Don't you just hate that?!!! I use the same 3 rulers for all my projects. I use my 6 1/2" x 24" as much as I can. If I need more than 6 1/2" I use the same additional ruler, etc.
What project are you working on? :)

stay with one brand of rulers for your quilt as some are off just a bit. Sorry you're finding this out the hard way.
