Deb Tucker Rulers
 
I have been hearing a lot of good things about these rulers lately. I bought Deb's Wing Clipper ruler years ago before I knew who she was. I hate to buy rulers and just use them once and then they sit in the drawer. I'd like to buy a few more of her rulers because I have issues with accuracy, so I'm asking what your favorite Deb Tucker rulers are that are muti-functional?

If I understand your question, I think you should look at the types of units you need for your next few projects and buy whatever DT tool will make what you need the most. So if Storm at Sea is at the top of your list, you need the Diamond Recs and Square Squared. If you're making Tennessee Waltz next, you can use the V-Block and Corner Pop. I have most of her tools and used have made many different units with great accuracy. Now when I see a pattern, I ask myself if this is one that will use one of the DT tools. HTH.

I agree with Wesing, decide your most used units and purchase accordingly. Myself, I have all of her rulers and I too look so see how I can use them when I’m making a unit. I will often adjust the pattern to accommodate her methods and tools. Well worth the investment!

love DT rulers

I love Deb Tucker's Studio 180 Designs products. I own a bunch of them and haven't regretted the purchase of any. My newest favorite is the Corner Pop. It's not multi-functional, but it's my favorite way to do folded corners.

Is it worth it to buy Deb Tucker's Hunter Star Ruler? The big one or small one?

I don't know if I should comment. I have a whole bucket of rulers. Plus more in my drawers. I guess I like rulers. But I do love my Hunters Star template and my Storm at Sea template.

I was fortunate enough to take a class with Deb Tucker in September at Quilting on the Bayfront in Erie, PA. I don't think you can go wrong with any of her rulers.

It depends on the size(s) of the Hunter's Star block you're interested in making.

Per the Studio 180 website, large does 7", 8", 9", and 10" finished blocks. Petite does 5", 6", 7", and 8" finished blocks.
