    Default Big ruler to add to your ruler collection

    QIAD has 24.5x12.5 ruler on sale for just over $40.00 w/free shipping! To big for me. I rarely use my 24x6.

    I bought one a few weeks ago. I have used it a lot more the I thought. It's nice. I paid $42.99 at the quilt shop who ordered it for me.

    I have one that size and love using it to trim my quilt after the actual quilting has been done. I use a lot of wide borders on bed size quilts and this ruler means I don't have to use 2 rulers to square the borders up before adding the binding. I use it to cut larger strips from my fabric. It's a favorite of mine.

    When did you get yours? I haven't seen one this size before now.

    Pretty good price if you need one that size.

    I stopped in the LQS yesterday and asked how the sale of the Big Easy was going. The store manager said they sold all they ordered in the first day and she has more coming with most of them pre paid. She said it was the most popular ruler they have had for long time, that and the Clearly Perfect Slotted Rulers.

    You got the 12 1/2 by 24 inch ruler five years ago? What brand is it? Are we talking about the same ruler? LOL
