I like the ruler a lot... but then I really like curve quilts. This is an easy curve. A friend of mine bought the ruler and she is now a curve making fiend too. It takes a little practice but once you got it, the curves work out great every time. Her blocks all do a cut down method so it makes it even easier to make her quilts. There isn't a ton of scrap, just a little but the blocks turn out great every time. I think you should go for it. My first qcr quilt was the Urban Nine Patch which is probably not the easiest way to go but it's the way I went. I always dive in head first!

I've order the ruler and the Urban Nine patch...waiting on delivery. I love both the urban nine patch and medallion and if i use the ruler for nothing else, i think i'm happy with that. blahel - she offers free shipping on the ruler on her site.
Thanks Deb - do you have a pic of your UrbanNP you could post? Love seeing her patterns done up.

I sure do. It hasn't been quilted yet. It's on my to do list for this week. I'm going to do a simple all over swirl since it is a double sided quilt. I made the Urban Neighborhood quilt to go on the back side. That wasn't intentional with the Urban/Urban name thing. I just liked both of the patterns so went with it.

I'm planning to make an U9P wall hanging to go in my bedroom and that one I'm going to quilt the heck out of it and break out the fancy quilting skills. I have a lot of left over blocks because of not planning this one out very well I had too many of one color, not enough of another, cut out too many for this block or that. It was a hot mess to say the least. I don't know what I was thinking or not thinking... so I do have enough fabric left over to make a matching lap quilt probably so I'll hang that on the wall above the headboard. It will look really pretty there
I have some great ideas for making my own quilts using her ruler. I keep forgetting to see if there are any conditions for designing and selling patterns made using her ruler. I want to be safe and not sorry if you know what I mean
