I use that ruler for when I'm quilting to make sure my blocks and sides are staying true as I advance the quilt.
Great ruler and its metal so won't break. Just make sure you don't let it drop to the floor or your foot. Ask me how I know...........

Great idea for the ruler but I have to say your quilt is beautiful what I can see of it!

I never square up my quilts. I square everything as I go.

A carpenters square is all I ever use to square up my quilts. My late sister always had one in her sewing tools and said it was the best thing ever! So I went out and bought one too.
