lovingmama 10-26-2011 06:50 AM

Granny Quilter 10-26-2011 06:50 AM

Helovesme 10-26-2011 06:51 AM

brushandthimble 10-26-2011 06:51 AM

Sorry, not going to count:)
afraid of how many I might have, LOL

AngieS 10-26-2011 06:54 AM

Not many

jdiane318 10-26-2011 06:54 AM

I have 75+ but they are for specific patterns. I could get by with less but am a little anal when it comes to measuring. Having the proper size ruler to square up helps me make fewer mistakes. I don't always think right and forget what I am doing on occasion and this just helps keep me on track.

I have 6. And besides, it's not a lot if you use them.(lol) :D

Zhillslady 10-26-2011 07:05 AM

that I have 20-30 - that I use regularly probably 4

beaniekins 10-26-2011 07:07 AM

I have 7, and use 4 of them regularly. I use the others too, just not as frequently.

Maia B 10-26-2011 07:08 AM

Templates are a separate category, having a lot just means you've done a variety of work. :D But I have a bunch of rulers. Sometimes the price for a set is best, but then you get that rarely used one. I have 6.5 & 12.5" square. 6x24, 6x12, 4x12. Couple of SMALL ones that came in sets-good for the portable sewing kit, next to the machine, even your purse.

DJ 10-26-2011 07:10 AM

I think I have about 5 (without going to the studio to check). Hmm . . . maybe I need more!

sahm4605 10-26-2011 07:21 AM

I have two templet and 7 ish rulers. I think. And use three religiously and the rest depending on project.

leatheflea 10-26-2011 07:25 AM

Dont care to count this morning, but its not that many!

Painiacs 10-26-2011 07:34 AM

2-4!

seamstome 10-26-2011 07:35 AM

I have probably 15

KerryK 10-26-2011 07:44 AM

That is a LOT! :shock:

Rose Marie 10-26-2011 07:51 AM

31 or more.
Of all my rulers the best one is Quilt In A Day's triangle square up ruler. Use it the most besides my 6 1/2 by 12 and 24.
Many have not used at all.

cctx. 10-26-2011 07:52 AM

I have quite a few; but not more than 30.

Barb44 10-26-2011 08:01 AM

I have 3 - 6.5 and 12.5 square and a 6x24. I can't imagine needing any others.

MoanaWahine 10-26-2011 08:29 AM

I have 10, I think. :wink: One still in its wrapper and have had it going on a year now. It is for a special project that I have not started yet. There is one that I have "miss placed" :-( , but I know I have it. Of those, there are 2 that I use all the time and one that I just found that I will be using a lot also.

dkabasketlady 10-26-2011 08:37 AM

I have 15 & use only 4 of them.

donnaree59 10-26-2011 08:49 AM

Well, I only have a few that I use over and over.... I get stuck in a rut and stay there!

QuiltnLady1 10-26-2011 08:51 AM

Hmmm... Too many to count. Over 30 for sure (not sure I could find them all :( )

BellaBoo 10-26-2011 08:57 AM

When I see a ruler on clearance for a few dollars I buy it. I have several of the same rulers. When Tuesday Morning store sell the EZ Angle, June Taylor, and Olfa 6 x 24 rulers
for .99 - $4.99, no way I'll not buy even if I already have them.

6 or 7? Maybe I need to go shopping? LOL

mytwopals 10-26-2011 09:21 AM

I'm way behind. I only have 3 - 6x24, 12x12 and 60 deg. Diamond rulers. And since I just bought an Altos QuiltCut2, I will only need to buy rulers for the longarm going forward.

Rhaorth 10-26-2011 09:41 AM

2 rulers, 1 cloth measuring tape, 2 home made templates (using cereal boxes), and my cutting mat

thequilterslink 10-26-2011 09:52 AM

Quite a few, not gonna count or i will be good griefing too lol

jayelee 10-26-2011 02:21 PM

hensandhollyhocks 10-26-2011 02:54 PM

One of my own, and one I borrowed from Mom. How long have you been quilting?

dreamboat 10-26-2011 03:35 PM

Uh.... YEP! But I wish I had that many! Templates I don't think I really have any. I have about 10 rulers and love them all!

bearisgray 10-26-2011 04:33 PM

Are you only counting the thicker acrylic ones?

How about the ones from Rhonda?

KatFish 10-26-2011 04:47 PM

3 rulers and 5 templates.
