The thing I like best about the twister ruler is the little "nubby's" on the back of the ruler which keeps it from sliding when you are cutting it out. I made a quilt using the large ruler and the blocks were six across and 7 down with two borders. It just covers my queen size bed with no hang over on the sides. But that OK , its not for me anyway. LOL

There are different sizes not sure if lines if different places.
Let's twist again fun day.

Yep, we all did this a couple years ago. I have made 3 different sizes from plexi and a marker. Works great.

On the 3.5 inch TWRuler the mark is at 3/4 inch. Use 5" blocks & 3.5" borders.

On the 8 inch TWRuler the mark is 2 inches. You start with a 10" square and 6.5" borders.

A 6 row by 6 row will finish at about 61 x 61...you can then add more borders if you want.<o
