I like the Creative Grids, but the Omni is my fave for general cutting chores. It seems to me that the Creative hang to the fabric a little too much and make removing and replacing them hard. If I were buying new sets of rulers, I would buy the mat that went with it, though. I do know there are very subtle variations in the measurements between manufacturers. I have read several blogs and other beginner tutorials that say the ruler should match the mat. Just a suggestion. (:-).

I am with you...have omnigrid of all kinds and many others...but I have started buying Creative Grids....I have talked to several people in the business....some like CG and others don't....I like them and have most of the square sizes several different rulers and have seen others for points, curves etc...You have to use what is easier for you...everybody is different....just because it's been around forever doesn't mean that it's the best....

I went you your web site....My problem is that you are not available in the United States....Do you happen to come to the International Quilt Festival in Houston, Texas...If you had a booth there I would be interested in trying your rulers.

I have a 6" ruler made by Santa Fe Quilting that is BAD! It is green and has 1/4 inch added to each side of the ruler, making it a 6 1/2", but it is really hard to cut squares when you're so used to adding 1/2" to your blocks. Any one else have this ruler?? :thumbdown:
