I am a novice quilter, I was almost ready to give up quilting,
even though I enjoyed it so much, because I was becoming so
annoyed with myself. It seemed every 2nd cut I made on my fabric
was crooked, because I couldn't keep the ruler perfectly still.
One day recently, my husband was sitting across from me whilst I
attempted to make a cut on a piece of expensive fabric. I'd only
purchased just enough for what I was doing. The ruler slipped,
again. Seeing my expression, and being thoughtful, he asked me
that fateful question "Surely there's something you can buy to
keep the ruler from slipping?". When I told him I had searched
high and low with no success apart from a little plastic thing
with suction cups about as useful as fingernails, he informed me
he would go and make me something. Off he went, to 'the shed'.
Several days later he came in with the prototype of the
RuleSteady. I've never looked back. I've not wasted a single
piece of fabric through ruler slippage since. And I Never make a
cut without it. We have also found that the rulesteady is of
great benefit to those quilters with Arthritis or Carpal Tunnel
Syndrome. For information on purchasing one of the two sizes go
