Is there a way to refresh the numbers/lines on ruler
#3
Go shopping! If you've worn off the numbers and lines, it's time for you to have a new ruler. Chances are, there are some nicks in the sides too. If you haven't tried the frosted rulers yet, they are wonderful!! Trying to use a marker to re-mark the lines will give you lines that just aren't perfect.

You could end up with lines being off just enough to mess with you :(
You know, the difference between a 1/4" and a scant 1/4" isn't much... so it would be hard to be exact enough if you remarked them yourself.

I would check the edges, too. I know I nick mine often; the corners get worn as well--then the corners of your fabric is not quite square. I make lots of minis and love the Creative Grid rulers. The lines are fine enough to promote accuracy when cutting those 3/4 to 1 1/2 inch pieces, yet large enough to see.
