6-1/2"x24-1/2" Quilt Ruler

The most versatile large-format Creative Grids ruler -- 6.5"x24.5" covers cutting strips, borders, sashing, and half-square triangles efficiently in a single ruler. The 6.5" width handles 6" finished blocks and 6.5" unfinished strips without repositioning.

Circle Savvy -- 11-3/4"x18-1/2"

The Circle Savvy is Creative Grids' specialty circle-cutting ruler system -- it provides the cutting guides for precise fabric circles from 1" through 12" diameter without compass tracing or template marking. Essential for applique circles, yo-yos, and curved patchwork.

Circles -- 5 Discs with Grips

Five acrylic circle discs in graduated sizes with the Creative Grids non-slip grip -- for cutting circles, trimming applique, and marking circular quilting designs directly on fabric.

Crazier Eights Template

The Crazier Eights is Creative Grids' updated take on the Crazy Eight quilt block -- a specialty template that produces the distinctive curved-wedge Crazier Eights block. One of the most popular specialty block templates in modern quilting.

Folded Corner Clipper Tool

The Folded Corner Clipper eliminates the step of drawing a diagonal line when making folded corners (snowball corners) -- instead of marking and sewing on a line, use the Clipper to fold and clip the exact diagonal for perfectly consistent folded corners on any block size.

Alaska Ruler

The Alaska Ruler provides cutting guides for the distinctive Alaska block -- a specialty ruler that simplifies an otherwise complex block construction.

Scrap Crazy 6 Templates

The Scrap Crazy 6 template set is designed for scrappy quilts using 6" fabric squares -- the die-cut templates produce precise wedge shapes from scraps that assemble into the Scrap Crazy block. Coordinates with the Scrap Crazy 6 book.

Everyday Curve Template Sets

  • Everyday Curve Template Set -- templates for cutting and sewing gentle curves without pins -- the gentle curve design is beginner-accessible and produces modern curved-piecing quilts
  • Everyday Curve Junior Template Set -- the smaller-scale version for mini and lap-size curved projects

Tucker Trimmer III

The Tucker Trimmer III by Studio 180 Design is a precision trimming tool for squaring up half-square triangles, flying geese, and other units to exact sizes -- it includes marked lines for trimming with the seam allowance already accounted for. One of the most useful accuracy tools for traditional block construction.

Square in a Square -- 9"x12"

The Square in a Square ruler provides all cutting lines for the classic Square in a Square block in a single acrylic ruler -- no separate templates needed.

Spinning Square Cutting Mat -- 17"

A 17" rotating self-healing cutting mat that spins 360 degrees -- place a block on the mat and rotate to cut all four sides without moving the block, producing consistently square cuts on all sides simultaneously.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes Creative Grids rulers non-slip?

Creative Grids embeds exclusive gripper dots into the ruler underside -- when you press down, the grips engage the fabric and hold the ruler stationary during the cut, but the ruler still slides freely into position when pressure is released. It's the feature that built the brand's reputation for accuracy.

How does the Circle Savvy compare to circle templates?

The Circle Savvy cuts circles from 1" to 12" with a rotary cutter in graduated slots -- no tracing, no scissors, and perfectly smooth edges every time. Individual circle templates require tracing and cutting on the line, which introduces variation the Savvy's slot-cutting system eliminates.

What is the Tucker Trimmer used for?

The Tucker Trimmer III squares up pieced units -- half-square triangles, quarter-square triangles, combination units -- to their exact unfinished size with the diagonal seam perfectly centred. Trimming oversized units down is the most reliable path to precise blocks, and the Tucker Trimmer's marked sight lines make it fast.
