Sew Easy Slash N Circle Ruler Cutting From 5cm to 23cm Quilting, Sewing and Crafts - NL4195

The Sew Easy Slash N Circle Ruler takes the guesswork and the templates out of cutting perfect fabric circles. A single ruler handles every circle size from 5cm right through to 23cm — giving quilters, sewers and crafters a fast, accurate and repeatable way to cut the circles that are central to some of the most loved designs in patchwork, appliqué and decorative sewing.

PERFECT CIRCLES — WITHOUT TEMPLATES OR TRACING Cutting accurate fabric circles by hand is notoriously difficult. Traced pencil lines wobble, paper templates shift, and scissors produce uneven edges that cause problems at the seam. The Slash N Circle ruler solves all of this by giving the rotary cutter a fixed, accurate curved edge to follow for every size from 5cm to 23cm. The "slash" method — a central slash cut followed by the circular ruler edge — produces clean, consistent circles fast, with no tracing, no separate templates and no freehand cutting required.

ONE RULER, EVERY CIRCLE SIZE YOU NEED Rather than a separate template for each circle size, NL4195 carries the full range from 5cm to 23cm on a single tool. Small 5cm circles for appliqué details and yo-yos. Medium circles for Cathedral Window centres and medallion blocks. Larger circles up to 23cm for Dresden Plate centres, bold circle quilts and statement appliqué. Every size is marked and ready to use — pick up the ruler, position it, cut. There is no swapping between templates mid-project and no loose pieces to lose.

THE PATTERNS THAT NEED THIS RULER Circle cutting comes up throughout quilting and decorative sewing, and NL4195 handles the full range. Dresden Plate is perhaps the most iconic — the large circular centre piece is what ties the blade points together, and cutting it accurately is critical to the block lying flat. Other circle-dependent designs include Cathedral Windows, Grandmother's Flower Garden centres, Snowball blocks, Orange Peel, Yo-yo quilts, Kaleidoscope and a wide range of appliqué work where circular motifs — flowers, dots, medallions — need to be consistent in size and clean at the edge. For crafters outside quilting, perfect fabric circles are used in fabric jewellery, hair accessories, soft furnishings and mixed media projects.

COMPLETE YOUR CUTTING SETUP The Slash N Circle ruler works best on a quality self-healing cutting mat — a 24" x 18" mat (ER4091 or the foldable ER4094) gives you the surface area for larger circles, while the A3 mat (057027) handles the smaller sizes. A Sew Easy rotary cutter rounds out the setup.
