The Omnigrid 4" x 14" ruler is easy to manipulate for quick cuts; it is also used when quilting to cut strips, shapes, bias pieces, and sashing strips; it's also ideal for making secondary cuts after cutting strips, and to cut fat quarters into strips and shapes. Rectangle rulers are used for cutting strips and trimming fabric edges. The Omnigrid 6" x 24" ruler (item# R24) is a best-selling ruler that’s ideal for beginning and advanced quilters alike. Some Omnigrid rectangle rulers include an additional ½" seam allowance. The smaller rectangle rulers are easy to manipulate for shorter strips and secondary cutting. Square rulers are used for secondary cutting of strips, and to square up finished quilt blocks. You’ll find Omnigrid rulers ranging from 2-1/2” square to 15” square. Many of the square rulers also feature a section of 1/8” grid, which is a perfect template for miniatures and color wash quilts. The 1/8" grid markings can also be used for drafting and cutting. Triangle rulers are used to cut half-square and quarter-square triangles. Seam allowances are included in the measurements, which are based on the finished size of the quilt block. Omnigrid offers 3 triangle rulers: half-square triangle to 6" (item# R96), half-square triangle to 8" (item# R96L), and quarter-square triangle to 8" (item# R98)
