    Default Help with ruler.

    I purchased a quilt in a day pattern that had a free 4 1/2 in. on point ruler with it for the leaves. I have never used specialty rulers as I'm pretty new to quilting, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to use it.
    I have tried goggling how to use one and have come up empty. Does anyone have a link or care to explain? Thanks in advance.

    Go to Eleanor Burns website at http://quiltinaday.com/theater/library.html

    She has a library of videos that might have the help you need.

    Thanks for the tip. I went through all her videos and unfortunately there isn't one for that ruler.

    Yes and I figured out that it is just a fussycut that you line the point up under the lines.

    You might want to see if a PBS station in your location has her weekly show called Quilt in a Day. I have learned a lot from her shows. Good luck and enjoy making your quilt.
