Quilts Using 60 degree Rulers
#11
Correct me if I am wrong, but it is my understanding that a 60 degree ruler has three sides all the same length. 3" across the bottom and 3" on both sides, or what ever size you have the sides are always the same length as the bottom width. Easy way to check to see if that is what you have. Like I said I could be wrong, but this is my thinking.

You can check this Hexagon Quilt Along and their Flickr page.

A 60 degree triangle is one sixth of a circle. 6 times 60 degrees equals 360 degrees.
You see one block wonder quilts on here every day. Those are made from 6 layers of fabric stacked up in identical placement. The fabric is cut into strips and then subcut with your 60 degree ruler. Look for a pattern and give it a try. Do not buy a diamond ruler. You'll never need it.
