Need to know what size squares to cut
Hi,
I am new to quilting and I am planning to make a twister quilt. I bought my fabric today and I really want to start cutting my squares, but they didn't have the twist n turn ruler at the store today and the quilting stores are closed until Monday. I cannot find instructions anywhere. I just need to someone to tell me what size squares to cut for finished pinwheels about 5 inches. Thank you!!

The twister ruler defines the size of the squares you require. After joining all the squares in the correct positions for your feature. Then use the twister ruler which you place on the tilt. You cut out these squares and join to make the twister pattern.

For the "Lil Twister" you use 5 inch squares. Using the "Lil Twister" the pinwheels will finish at 3 inches. I have made these, they are easy and fun.
For the "Twister" ruler you use 10 inch squares. I have not made this one yet but looking at my ruler it seems they will finish at 8 1/2 inches.
