Sew Easy Patchwork Ruler - 1" x 6"in Imperial and Metric Quilters, Sewing - 057013

Sew Easy Patchwork Ruler - 8"in x 0.5"in Imperial and Metric Quilters, Sewing - NL4182

The Sew Easy 1" x 6" Patchwork Ruler is a compact precision tool for the fine measurement tasks that come up constantly in quilting, patchwork and sewing — but that a standard wide ruler handles awkwardly. At 1" wide and 6" long, it is sized for accuracy in small spaces, with both imperial and metric markings so it works across all pattern systems and sewing styles.

SMALL RULER, PRECISE RESULTS The 1" width on this ruler is a particularly useful measurement in patchwork. Many quilting blocks use 1" finished strips — which cut at 1.5" with seam allowances — and having a ruler that clearly marks the 1" increment makes checking and cutting these pieces fast and accurate. The ruler is equally useful for adding consistent seam allowances to paper templates, checking stitch spacing for hand quilting, marking buttonhole positions and any other task where a small, precise ruler gives you better control than a larger one.

THE COMPACT COMPANION FOR DETAIL WORK At 6" long, this ruler is designed for close-up precision work rather than cutting across full fabric widths. It fits comfortably in the hand for detailed measuring, sits flat on small template pieces without overhanging and is easy to position accurately in tight spaces where a longer ruler would be unwieldy. Keep it beside your machine or hand sewing kit for the small measurements that come up mid-project.

IMPERIAL AND METRIC — ONE RULER DOES BOTH Both imperial (inches and fractions) and metric (centimetres) markings are printed clearly on this ruler, making it a versatile choice for quilters and sewers who work across both measurement systems. Whether you are working from a traditional inch-based quilting pattern or a modern metric sewing design, this ruler has the markings you need.
