I lost the measurement for the ez ruler angle for 60 degrees and would like to make a block out of the 6 point star...

I have completed the 4 1/2" cut angle star but what are the corner measurements please?

Is there a pdf somewhere?

Thank you! :?:

Don't know but can't you check the manufacturers website for that info?

Thought I was not going to sleep tonight...between my husband and my friend Judi, we figured it out....it is like some kind of trapzoid...
you take the length of the angle, then take that same measurement to the bottom of fabric which will be horizontal and you mark it and cut a straight line. What a lesson...math....lols! I still feel that the hex shape will probably look better though...attached is what it looks like..have a good night all...

So glad you had help to figure it out. I am looking for one of those rulers myself. Saw a pattern I want to do and it calls for one. I don't want to have to do the math though. LOL. Hope you are having fun with it now.

Look for Easy Six cutting ruler by Sharon Hultgren From EZ International. An Easy Eight is also available for 45º,8-pointed stars.
