Want to create the illusion of curves without having to piece them? Why not try the Straight Out of Line ruler from Creative Grids®.
This ruler, designed by Karla Alexander, creates unique four-patch blocks with the illusion of curves. Ruler markings make it possible to cut squares from 4" – 10" squares – and every half-inch in between. The finished size of the pieced block is approximately 3/4" less than the cut block. Their exclusive embedded gripper strips hold the fabric while cutting when pressure is applied.
