I Love all the OBW pictures that's been posted. Where do I get one of the rulers, and what's the name of it. Thanks in advance. I know its a 60 degree ruler, but that's all I know.

I got the ClearView ruler. It really doesn't matter what brand used as long as it is 60degree and has the point. The ones with the point cut off the top won't work as well. You need the point for matching.

Thank you so much.

You can use a regular ruler, if it has a 60* line on it :D:D:D

Yall (yes a Southern girl), I think I should have studied harder in Geometry. I get so confused when I get passed "seam allowance"!

Had we known that we would need this geometry for quilting in our later years, we might have paid attention...thankfully, I love math, so it just comes naturally for me....but I wish I had studied harder in history!

Nanamoms, Me too! Geometry never made sense to me. Have no idea how I passed it :D:D

I've been using my 60 degree diamond ruler for mine

My 6- degree ruler doesn't have the pointy tip and I don't seem to have any problems with it. Joannes carries them sometimes.
Meant to say 60
