Ruler with 7/8 inch markings?
Good morning everyone! Hope you all are having a great day this Tuesday!
I need a ruler that is marked with 1/8" to 7/8" markings to cut some 3 7/8" squares. Do any of you have special rulers with these markings or do I just use what I have and "guessestimate" the 7/8"? Thanks in advance for any info on this. I am not a beginner but I am not an expert either! Thanks!

all my rulers have the eighth markiungs, too. but if it calls the the 7/8" for HSTs, i would cut the squares to the next full inch and trim the finished block down with my square up ruler.

I too always round up and then trim after pressing. I have Omnigrid and they all have 1/8" dashes, not a continuous line. Some quilters use the Omnigrid 0.25'' x 21 Yds Glow Line Tape to mark particular lines. Can be found on JAF online:
