I got mine at Joann Fabrics and since the quilting rulers were 50% off, I got it for a good price. That was several years ago. Now I have to find it to see if I can follow these instructions.

What a cute block. I have had the ruler forever and it is still in the package. Maybe I will get it out now.

Thank you so much for this. I had never thought that these rulers would be useful until you first posted this tutorial and it so inspired me that I immediately ordered them. I've been using them to make pine trees and as soon as I finish my northwoods quilt I plan to use your excellent tutorial to make a stars quilt.
