Lyn Edwards States Regarding Ruler:

I often incorporate folded rectangles into my Cathedral Window project

• Combining them with the folded squares creates depth and movement in the completed designs.
• Because of the complex folding process, the piece of fabric used to create this folded rectangle is an odd shape.
• The Creative Grids Cathedral Window Rectangular Ruler has slots built into the inside angles so the shape can be rotary cut.
• Cut multiple layers quickly and easily.
• This ruler cuts one size of rectangle, finished 3" x 4.5", which is the one I use most.
• The folded rectangle can be combined with 3" and 4 1/2" finished folded squares.
