I dont like anything june taylor. Its soft and my rotory cutter cut it. I thought it was just that particular ruler but its not. I bought another june taylor 6x24 and I'll be a monkeys uncle if my rotary cutter didnt take a nick out of it also! No more june for me. I would suggest a better quality or you'll be replacing it in no time.

Love my 2 but they were never used until I ran across the video on how to use it. It is such an eye-opener.

I like it and I use it a lot. I think it's well worth the money.

They are on clearance because the June Taylors are being replaced with the Fiskars brand!!

I love it. You should unwrap it!

you will love it! made 2 Summer in the Park quilts and the strip cutting was so fast and easy with the Shape Cut. I'd still be cutting strips instead of finishing the binding if I didn't have this ruler. Take off the shrink wrap and use it. again, you'll love it!

This is how much I love mine...

If I were to tell a new quilter what to buy this would be item #2 (item #1 would be a sewing machine). It truly is the BEST ruler I have and the one I use 95% of the time. Actually, when I need to go to another ruler I almost get annoyed :)

Take the shrink wrap off and enjoy it!

I love my June Tailor rulers!! They make cutting much quicker and more accurate for me. I already had all but the one that cuts only 2 1/2" strips, but when my Walmart put them on clearance, I bought extras!!! (That's how much I love these rulers!)My Walmart put all of their rulers on clearance and restocked with Fiskars brand rulers.

I am right handed and always used the ruler with the 0 to the left and the bulk of the fabric to the right. I saw a You Tube video in which the lady turned the ruler around so that the 0 was on the right with the bulk of the fabric to the left. I tried that and have done it that way ever since. With this layout, when I am holding the ruler I am holding the bulk of the fabric still instead of just holding down the strips I have already cut. Here is a link to the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7KcoJ...ature=related.
