I have the larger one. For longer yardage do you fold it several times? Won't it get wonky?

Joanns for half price sounds great!

Bought both sizes and use them ALL the time. Its a good investment.

You will use it more than you think. Good investment. Go for it! |
I use mine to square up bigger blocks. The 1/4" cut size is the best for this. You can't just place the ruler on fabric and cut without practice. Aligning the 0 cutting slot extended line to the edge of the fabric and the bottom measuring line across the fold will give you accurate cuts every time. I cut cheap muslin until I got the hang of it.

Use the large ruler. Love it.

I have worn out 2 Shape Cuts, just bought a new one last week! I love using mine!

There is different types i also found out!! So read it before you buy it..... Theres 1/8th. 1/4's and 2 1/2 increment PER mat. I bought the 1/4 since it seams to be the avg, size. Joanns has them 50% off thru Mon Labor Day!![/quote]
Wow...I have a coupon for 20% off regular or sale items. Guess I'd better get dressed! |

I was going to buy one recently only to discover I had one, still wrapped in plastic from several years back. Needed it, opened it and have not stopped using. |
I am used to a regular 6" wide 24" long ruler. It appears that on the video you have to fold the width of the fabric smaller than the regular fold-in-half, the way it comes from the quilt shop. Is that correct?
