How to Make Your Own Quilt Ruler Grips
You can easily make your own quilt ruler grips in a few easy steps. I recently bought a couple of new quilt rulers, but I didn't think to get any quilt ruler grips. Also, the ones on my other rulers are starting to wear out a bit. So, wanting to pinch a penny, I decided to make my own ruler grips. They're really simple to make and you most likely have everything you need at home to get started.
- 1/2 inch double-sided tape
- *220 fine-grit sandpaper.
- an old pair of scissors (or utility knife)
4. Peel the tape paper off to expose the sticky side and stick your grips to the back of your quilt ruler.
Make Perfect Pinwheels Every Time!
I love the pinwheel block. It’s a timeless classic that can easily be incorporated into traditional as well as modern quilt designs, but piecing all those little triangles is a pain. Below is a quick method for making any size Pinwheel block you need.
FORMULA FOR QUICK PINWHEELS
Note: The finished block size is the size of the block after the quilt is finished.- Determine the finished block size, e.g. 6 inches
- Divide the finished block size by 1.41. (6 ÷ 1.41 = 4.25)
- Add this result to 0.875 (4.25 + 0.875 = 5.13)
- Round up the above result to the nearest 0.125 inches. (5.13 + 0.125 = 5.25")
- The parent size squares will be 5.25"
- Square up your block to the correct unfinished size (finished size plus 1/2")

Wonky Beach House Mug Rug
Wow! Mug rugs are just flying out of my studio these days. I have them all over the house and my husband is still not sure what the heck they are, ha! I love this Wonky Beach House mug rug and the striped "ticking" fabric gives it a very casual "beachy" feel.
