Tinker, Don't laugh at my rulers as they are handmade. My husband bought some thick plexiglass & cut them. They're not as smooth as they should be, but for learning how to use them, they'll do. Two straight rulers & 1 feather ruler. I've only used the feather ruler once in a practice piece & I think DH needs to make one that's a bit smaller. Also there's a picture of the ruler foot to compare with a regular sized foot.

Debbie, I'm going to look for the foot on line. I have a Brother 1500s. If the same year ofJuki and Brother were put side-by-side the name is the only difference(sp.) between them. Maybe the Juki foot would work on my machine. I'll check Brother again before I try Juki. I also have plexiglass and I know a Glazer(works for a Glass Co.) Thanks for the Pictures Tinker

Tinker, make sure that your plexiglass is 1/4" thick. Rulers for quilting are thicker than our rulers used for cutting. You don't want the foot to hop onto your ruler.
