This 3½” x 6½” rectangle ruler features easy-to-read black and white markings printed in 1 inch grids marked in 1/8” and ¼” increments. Use the easy-to-read, black numbers (printed on white dots) and the 1/4 inch grip sides to cut whole inches. The 1/4 inch dashed lines printed on two adjoining sides aid in trimming seam allowances. Use the patented Turn-A-Round feature designated by the easy to read, numerical white numbers (printed on black dots) and the 1/2 inch grip sides to add the 1/2 inch seam allowance.
Use the white 45 degree angle to trim half-square triangles in whole inch increments. Use the black 45 degree angle to trim half-square triangles in half inch increments. These 45 degree lines cross 1/4 inch away from the outside edge. Use these markings to square up flying geese units; squares set on point or mark cross-hatching. The ruler also features a 30 degree / 60 degree angle. White horizontal and vertical lines are printed on the rectangle so the center of the ruler is easily distinguishable
