We can't help but try new ones that we think will be the one.

This is so interesting - dare I ask you for 2 lists for a Beginner, Traditional, Wall Hanging/Bed Size Quilter
The size/type of rulers that are essential: The size/type of rulers that are nice but not essential? I kicked off with the 6x24 and a 12.5x12.5 Square - any more suggestions? Thanks, Ellie xx |

About 15.
|
Not quite that many, but more than I use regularly. I started out with just 3 or 4 and then I went to a quilter's estate sale and they were all 50 cents or a dollar. How could I resist?
|
We have about 10 rulers of various kinds and about 15 templates.
Whenever a new project requires many pieces of dimensions that we do not have a template for I go down to the work shop and make new templates out of 1/8" plexiglass. |
About 55. Didn't realized I had that many. Not even counting the template sets I have. How did this happen? Was I just forgetful? I have a set of 10 I use faithfully and the rest are used once in a while. I here by promise to not look, want, or buy another ruler again (fingers crossed). LOL

only 5
|
Now I feel deprived. Wait, I have 11 plus protractors, compasses, freezer pater, a roll of kraft papper, a basket full of markers and pencils, every size of rotary cutter and spare blades, glue, various household items for circles... No wonder the teens always came to my house to do their projects. Guess I'm in the game after all.
|
Probably about 20, different size hexagons, the Dear Jane rulers, largers ones, smaller ones, medium size ones, depends on what I'm cutting and the size......most need different rulers, or at least I think so. Don't want to use a 24" for a 6" piece of fabric.
|
I have four but I'm thinking I need to get another. I've been working on a project this week that would be soooo much easier if I had a 12.5 square.
|
Waaaaaaaaaaay more than 33! I'm not even going to count. Many of mine are sets and usually curved - because I can't get the accuracy I want for curved pieces without acrylic templates. I just made a Grandmother's Fan quilt with cardboard ones that I had made. I was painstakingly careful to get them right, but still not too happy with those!

My goodness, you have a lot of rulers!! I have maybe 6.
|
one
|
i don't want to count. Many of them I have not used but wanted them. I only bought them when I could get them on sale.
|
Rulers - about 7
Templates - too many to count. I took a sampler class that we had to create a lot of them. Not going to count them. As they're in a couple of gallon size freezer bags and I don't use them. |
Probably around 20.
|
I have so many I forget where I put them all:-)
|
I can't even find all mine to count them...really need to organize!!!!!
|
I have a few. Really need to get a pegboard up to organize them.
|
I have 5 rulers, a six foot for stripping, a yard stick, six inch, a set of round rulers, and one for cutting angles and they are all made of metal. I gave up on the plastic and wooden ones as they ware and my blocks were off.
|
8 or so but 2 I use regularly.
|
Ditto on the 4!

Oh goodness, I would hate to count how many I have!!
|
I don't dare count, it would be too depressing. Also, if I count I would realize how many duplicates that I have - - purchased it again because I forgot that I had it already.

I have about 4 rulers, but way too many templates. Diane C
|
Not too bad on rulers (3) squares (4) and templates (2) but I do have 7 seam rippers and about 2 dozen measuring tapes!
|
Do they have rulers that are 4 7/8 or others with the 7/8 and made into a square, If so I am buying more. - J
