Put two 12 in squares together and you have your ruler. There are things for attaching but if you are going to use it that way a lot I would find some way to permanently attached them.

I made a bag to carry my 24x36" cutting mat and I store my 20x20 square with it.

The most economical way to get one would be to go to Lowes or other building center and ask them to cut a piece of plexiglass to size, much less costly. When you get home just lay it on top of a ruler you have and with a small point sharpie marker mark the important numbers you will need. Just a little advice from an old, frugal granny. Leaves more $$$ for fabric. Ruth

I store my 20.5x20.5 square up ruler along with my June Tailor Shape Cutter and other oversize rulers in an "office mail holder". The kind of holder with three vertical dividers. It holds the rulers vertically up out of the way.

I have the creative grids 8.5 x 24 and their 2.5 x 36. I have not seen a larger version of either.

Would love to have a something by 32" long ruler with a clamp on one end to clamp to cutting table. I have a 23" now with a sqeesy clamp, works but a longer ruler would be nice
