I love the "Sixth Finger", tool I bought at the Clotilde.com website. I use it to keep from sewing through my fingers. Right now it is on sale for less than 10 dollars. I also love my supreme slider mat for free motion work.It makes moving the quilt top so much easier.

question:
I have the june taylor ruler that's 8"x10". Is the 12"x16" ruler made of the same thin plastic? It seems awfully flimsy and way too flexible when I use it--I just tried because so many of you like it. Is the larger one stiffer or the same?
Thanks!

my friend and i both had June Tailor's 12 inch ruler. her's is an older one and i noticed that her ruler is not as flexible as mine. her ruler feels like it is made with more plastice while mine has more, i don't know? epoxy perhaps. my friend has broken hers and i bought her a new one to replace it. she had said she really like the new one with its more flexible material.
