Somewhere on this board there are instructions how to make your own with a 3" square ruler (may be another size)

There are 4 sizes of them one uses 10" sq. to start next one down is 5" sq. then 3.5" and Itty bitty uses 2.5" SQ. I will post photos of what I have done with them...I have more I will take a photo of them also. I have taught classes. Original biger sizes are made by the first posting. Next two were made by another company in the same state.
Last two photos use the 5" squares . The benartex was a challenge I did and I didn't win a place but I got 6 yards of fatquarters.

thanks - i think i am going to do a little search. i figured someone on this board would figure out how to do one without buying the special ruler!

I got some of the rulers for teaching the class. The thing is is the X on the ruler and the fact that it tells you what size to cut the squares. There is very little waste.On the Benartex one I used the waste squares and triangles in the border. It is fun and fast.

I love your quilts. I have done 2 of these and love them. What is the name of the company of the smaller sizes? that is very interesting. I only have the 10" & 5" but i would love to get the other 2.

Thanks
