Frequently Asked Questions
- Why does a small ruler outsell the big ones?
- Because 2.5" is quilting's universal dimension — jelly roll strips, binding, four-patches, HST squares — and 6.5" is the standard unit-check size. This one tool touches more everyday cuts than any 24" ruler, and it lives at the machine rather than the cutting table.
- What does the non-slip coating actually change?
- Cut accuracy at the source — ruler creep mid-cut is the root cause of most inaccurate strips, and the QS coating grips the fabric itself, no sandpaper dots or grip mat needed, without clouding the markings.
- Where does it fit against the QS 6.5" x 24"?
- The pair covers strip work end to end — the 24" cuts strips across yardage; this one sub-cuts them into units and squares up as you piece. Most QS owners run both.
- The coating's lifespan?
- Factory-applied and permanent — no peeling or replacement film; it's part of the ruler, not an accessory on it.
- Companion buy?
- The QS 45mm Deluxe cutter and the Dual Mat — the same-system trio the ruler line is designed around.
