Is it the Tucker Ruler?
I did buy a new ruler that is to make square in a square and other blocks with a lot less waste. I thought about it for quite a while and ended up going back and getting it. I think I'll use it a lot and it will pay for itself in fabric savings. LOL At least that's what I am telling myself!

To be honest, I have had all the squares cut and the patterns marked for some time, all I had to do is cut the pieces and stitch them.... I want to stay ahead of the schedule so when I get my next rows I will be able to devote my time to them.
Are you working on anything interesting Dayle?
Boy ..... all I can say is, "You are "one" busy-busy Gal! These are just beauriful! :thumbup: :thumbup: - Dayle

I saw a demo of that ruler last month at MFQS. It is really a good ruler and makes perfect square in a square blocks.

cock the hammer and pull the trigger and put me out of my misery.....please! This block is almost finished and I have never been so happy to finish anything in my entire life. The swirls are so close together that I only had about an 1/8" to try to needle turn under. I have never chased so many stray threads. It is not the neatest block I have done, but IT IS DONE!! I will take a pic and post it in a little while.
Now where are those bullets?????? :?: :?: 8-)
