    Default Hexagon Ruler

    I would like a set of hexagon rulers, but don't know which is the better. Granted I would love a Sizzix dye cut fabric cutter, but I don't have that. What hexagon ruler do you guys use, and love? Whjich do you not like?

    I bought a set of three on eBay which are 1",2" and 3". They seem to work well for me. I mostly make hexes using the 1" size.

    I'm going to get one. I was knitting hexipuffs, and realized that material cut hexis were quicker and easier.
