Square up tool
#2
I will definitely check the watch this topic box because I would like to know this too. Especially when none of the corners are square to start with. I seem to get a lot of paralelograms and trapazoids. Or do I mean rhombuses?? LOL

Accurate measuring, cutting and sewing to begin with. Some things just can't be rushed! When the pieces are all together, I have a 12.5 square ruler that I use. For some of the smaller blocks, I have a 9.5, a 6.5, a 4 and a 3...all depends on what I am making.

They make square up rulers. I think mine is 12 or 12 1/2 square. They are fantastic to use. Mine has a 45 degree line on it so I can use it to square HST's evenly. I have bought smaller ones for smaller blocks, but always end up using the large one. Check them out at your LQS or JoAnn's, HL wherever you shop. Mine is old; there may be more on the market.
