My rulers never leave my sewing room but I still misplace them. It will take me hours to find my 6 1/2"x6 1/2" ruler underneath a pile of fabric that got there not by my doing. I lose rulers all the time and then one day they are all sitting there. I know no one is playing with my mind because it happens when I'm home alone for 2 days. Those rulers are crazy things!!!

That is a neat site - in fact I had forgotten about those multiplication tables charts, too. Secondly, when I am going through my scraps looking for a basic size to use for paper piecing or an isolated block (say a 2.5 x 3 inches), I have an index card that I marked the inches and when my eyes are crossing but I think I found the right size piece, I can just hold it up to be card to be sure it is a 2 1/2" or whatever size before I toss it on the table. Amazing how you think something is big enough - - - but nope, it is a little short.

I was just wondering...could you scan a ruler and print several copies of it. Maybe you could print on cardstock and then laminate. I might have to try it myself. Isn't it amazing how we put our brains to work to help another quilter and in turn learn ways to help ourselves.

hope everyone had a great Easter!

Great tips! I love this place. I have used the graph paper online before for when I am tutoring at the public library and need it for various assignments. Yes, at the library it may cost a dime but it is great when you are out. Thanks again every one for sharing. Teresa

I found a printable ruler at Spark people. It can be as long as you want or you can cut it short. I printed it up on card stock and on regular paper. I put it together and taped a long piece on the edge of my cutting table for measuring yardage. I sprayed it with clear paint to keep the ink from running. I do't have the link but I think you can search it on the site. I will have to try the other links.
