Only problem we always have here is that the block and the book cost me $76 so it was a big disappointment not to get the right pattern. Your costs will be cheaper. I like the idea of no waste.

How come it cost so much where you live? Is it the shipping? Can you buy stuff on the US websites? I
Really like this - it seems that the design possibilities are endless with this method. I can hardly wait to start mine.

Thanks to those who have shown quilts you've made with this tool. I'll start doing a search for the best buy on this ruler. . I really enjoyed the well presented information.
Great web site. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Yes, I have just finished with the basic quilt on my first one. I have decided to put some borders to make it larger. The only secret is to sew the seams on your strips exactly perfect. It really is neat. Sorry I don't have a camera or know how to use it. Maybe someday if I would quit buying books and rulers. The book has lots of other options so plan on another soon.

Which book did you buy? Does the ruler come in the book? What size ruler do you like to use?
