Thanks Stacey

Thanks for watching Kathy 🤗

[@beadmomma4]

Thank you for this video. I have avoided quilts with half square triangles because I hate squaring them up. This would make it easier. 👍

[@staceyleecreative]

Yes this would be a great investment for you I think 🤗

[@lyndapeterson9948]

Thanks Stacey. A very handy wee ruler. I think I need a set😃 have a lovely weekend.

[@staceyleecreative]

I’m glad you liked it Lynda! I think they are a great investment for someone that trims a lot of Half Square Triangles 🤗

[@bethannekayoneil7385]

Congrats! And thank you for explaining things so well!!! My accuracy is getting a bit better, but I have a pattern with a lot of triangles, which I have yet to try...so I will look into getting that tool locally if I can...

[@staceyleecreative]

Wonderful Bethannne! Thanks for watching 🤗

[@teeh917]

You deserve much more, Sweet lady. ❤

[@staceyleecreative]

You're the best Teresa! Thanks so much, I appreciate it a lot 🤗

[@marcydiver]

Pretty cool

[@staceyleecreative]

Thanks Marcy 🤗

I have not used that ruler, but I have used another ruler for half square triangles. I concur that the placement line needs to be slightly above the stitching line for the HST to not be small. That has been my experience.

[@staceyleecreative]

I’m glad it wasn’t just me Annie. I think it’s important to give the full story when doing a review and measuring the block at the end I was a little surprised the block was small.

[@veevee111]

Awesome rulers. Thanks for sharing 👍🏼

[@staceyleecreative]

Thanks for watching!

[@CharmaineMinami]

So helpful,thank you!

[@staceyleecreative]

You're very welcome! 😊 Glad you found it helpful!

[@elsieelm2763]

Thank you.😊

[@staceyleecreative]

You're welcome 😊

[@CherylOConnor-mo4lg]

I like it...not too sure how often I would use it but seems quite accurate.

[@staceyleecreative]

Yes they are great if you need one ☝️

[@teeh917]

Knock knock. 😃 Two Fridays in a row ! It's gonna come a avalanche in Arkansas. Lol

[@staceyleecreative]

Yay! Glad you made it 🤗

[@mskleftwich]

I imagine doing a test cut is especially important because some people do a scant or generous seam allowance (maybe without even realizing it!)

[@staceyleecreative]

I thought that originally to. But this rulers works from the stitches so it doesn’t matter what your seam allowance is. I like that about the rulers.

[@judywiggins5092]

Hello

[@staceyleecreative]

Hey Judy 🤗

[@carlahennesy7174]

The outsides of the resulting HST’s are on the bias. Anyone have problems with this?

[@staceyleecreative]

You have to handle them carefully. Starch can help make the fabric more ridged and less stretchy. 🤗

[@genafuscaldo6373]

You are the 3rd person who’s said this.. I want to purchase it, but a bit afraid.. it’s expensive too.. 😮 for it not to be accurate.

[@staceyleecreative]

Hi, a lot of people love it. You just need to know what you are going to use as your guide 😊

[@jspyrogram]

ARGH - I ironed mine open THEN ordered the ruler. Can't I just iron them back into a triangle?

[@staceyleecreative]

Oh no! 😅 It’s okay-you can try ironing them back into a triangle. Thanks for leaving a comment! 🌟

[@teeh917]

Am I in the wrong place? 🤔

[@staceyleecreative]

You are in the right place 🤗

[@teeh917]

Oooops. I lost everyone.

[@staceyleecreative]

Hi Teresa, the chat ends when the video ends. It’s kind of annoying. Would be nice to keep chatting 🤗 Have a great weekend ❤️

[@mimikelly3260]

I found this hard to see because your material is dark like pink and it would’ve been easier if you did it with white because we can’t see very well how your dotted lines lineup with your stitches

[@staceyleecreative]

Good point
