I have other questions about ruler wrapping: What size ruler do most of you use? Is it basically personal preference? I have the usual 6x24" ruler but it has the finger projector on it so it wouldn't be a tight wrap. It seems that the piece needs to be at least 1/2 yard, but that wouldn't stay together if a wide ruler was used, would it? And if you are using a more narrow ruler, how do you put it on the shelf? It seems that if you simply lined them up a lot of shelf space behind would be wasted. Do you lay it down? Do 1/2 yard pieces look like the rolls of "ends of fabrics" in the stores? My mind isn't wrapping around this as well as I had thought. And what is the biggest piece people wrap using the ruler method. I think this may be what I should do (rather than stacking pieces on top of each other), but I haven't got an image in my head yet.
