Love the June Tailor rulers and use as much as possible (don't use with the true scraps unfortunately!). If you do search in the www.youtube.com site of June Tailor, you get pretty good videos on using the rulers.Believe I got my scallops ruler at JoAnns couple months ago.

How do you use the search??
I believe the only dumb question is the one you don't ask.But I really want to know, do just go on search and the put in a name of what you are looking for, say if someone made a quilt you liked could you find it??
Thanks, Pickle

So not to waste gas I called 3 stores in other towns to make sure that it was in stock. The first 2 told me that they had the 12" in stock, but not the Pro. I called the store in Piqua (which is about 45 minutes away one way) and was told Yes they had the large one. I asked are you sure that its the large Pro & gave the size of the cutter. Was told again yes it's the large one. I drive to Piqua in the rain. My windshield wipers decided to act up (never done that before) with the driver's side going way off the window, and so, my husband got off the freeway & bought pliers at a store to tighten the bolt. I know that you know where this story is heading...finally get to Joann's in Piqua only to find out that it's the 12" cutter & not the Pro. Lady said that she had guessed at the size when on the phone with me. I bought it anyway and it's too short. Even with double folding my fabrics it can be too short. I wish I had gotten the June Taylor Shape Cut Pro.
And to keep it on topic. Is there a 1/4" cut ruler that you don't have to fold your fabric over and over to get it to fit? I think the only one I saw was only about 8" wide so fabric would have to be folded 3 times or so (in addition to the original fold).

I've used one for several years. It's the greatest for cutting binding strips. I've also used the diagonal lines to cut out pieces for a Hunter's Star. Then I found that it was great to cut the edges of a fleece blanket for tying - just put a piece of blue tape on the ruler to mark the length of the cut. The individual ties were all the same width and length.
