Thank you so much for doing the math and helping with this tool!!!
You're so very welcome!! Thanks for watching.
I have always wanted to make a log cabin quilt. I really didn't understand how to use the ruler, and not to mention that they come in different sizes. I wanted to use up my jelly roll strips that I had also, and I am so happy that I found your video. It is easy to understand, and you explained how to use the ruler. I just ordered the ruler, and am excited to use up all my scrap pieces. I am glad that you said "Nobody's perfect", because my sewing isn't perfect with my bad eyesight. At least the ruler and the extra fabric will keep me somewhat more in the ball park. Thank you so much for this video!
YEAH!!! Best of luck and enjoy!!! It is a sweet ruler... once it's figured out. 😍
Thank you so much for this!!😍🤷🏾♀️
You're so welcome! Thanks so much for watching!
Thank you so much for the help! Just spent money on both log cabin rulers and then to find out the directions have no length requirements, I ended up disgusted after throwing strips away that I had cut wrong! You’d think creative grid would realize their are new quilters and making that experience easier would be their goal! Very disgusted with creative grid right now! Thank you so much for your help on this video! After watching your video I am going to give it another try today! Once again Thank You!
I hear you!! Glad you found it helpful. In a few weeks I have another one coming out for the 6" version.
Thank you, thank you! Just started trying this ruler this morning and had to look for a tutorial. Yours is the best by far! Everything that bothers you, bothers me! I so appreciate your detailed instructions and the sizes for the strips. ♥️
😆😍 I am SOOO glad you found my video and it was helpful! That ruler is NOT as intuitive as one would assume, that is for sure! Thanks for the wonderful comment.
I'm so happy I found this tutorial. I love all the creative grids rulers (especially the pineapple block ruler) and got this one the other day but didn't really find the creative grids tutorial on it as in depth as I would like. This is PERFECT!!! Thank you so much.
You're very welcome! That ruler was not quite as simple as one would think. Glad you found the video helpful. Once you figure it out, it's a great ruler!!
Thank you Wendy for this tutorial. I’ve had this ruler and it has just sat on my ruler board for years! But I found your tutorial today & I used this ruler for the very first time today. My log cabin block turned out beautiful. You are an excellent teacher. Now maybe I will make more blocks and do a table runner. 😊
You are so welcome! I'll admit, that ruler is not as intuitive as one would hope. I'm so happy you found it helpful and will now start using it. Best of luck with the table runner!
Thank you soooo much. I just threw away two jelly roll blocks because I could not figure out this ruler (who wrote those instructions?? not a quilter). YOur tips really helped. #1. I needed to make a mock-up first and cut my jelly roll strips. 2. You helped me see how I added strips to the wrong side. #3. White squares-- who knew, thanks.
LOL!! Oh I totally understand your pain! You are right, that ruler is not intuitive and instructions are worthless. If you send me an email I'll forward you my template with the numbers/strip lengths needed. I could have sworn I already had a link for people to get it, but apparently not. 😭 I'll be getting that fixed in a bit. Also... just now started a second video for the 6" block. Should be out in early October. Take care and thanks for watching!! Glad you found it helpful.
So very helpful. I have just purchased this ruler, now I have my nerves together enough to try it out. Just subscribed to your channel, I really like your way of teaching ❣️
I'm so glad you're going to give this ruler a try. It is pretty slick once you get past the confusion of all the lines. 🙂 Thanks for watching and subscribing!!
You’re a riot: honest and straight up! This was a very helpful video, but it would be great to know about it in your log cabin block tutorial. Absolutely NOT a criticism, since I discovered the need to trim as I constructed the block on my own. Finding this tutorial make me realize I was on the right track! With you as my guide! Thanks!
😂 glad u enjoyed it! Always looking for feedback. Could u email me at contactme@wendyjhaney.com to better help me understand the gap? Thanks!! Appreciate your watching and providing feedback.
I have sewn clothing for about 60 years, now I have decided I need to quit. I have made 2 baby quilts with just squares, bluffed my way through a couple of panels for my sisters, and now I know everything there is to know about quilting. Yeah right! Your tutorial on using this ruler is a master piece, I wouldn’t order it because just looking at it there was no way, it will be here Tuesday, I can’t wait I already have my strips ready. Thank you so very much for your info, I know I will be watching it a lot more times. Thank you for your help. You are a wonderful instructor.
awww Linda, that is just amazing!!! You're comment just warmed my heart!!! I'm so excited for you and all the things you're going to be doing now!!! Thanks so much for watching. 😍
You are an excellent teacher!
Thank you so much for your kinds words. I appreciate that. 💜
Beautiful fabric and color choices.
Thank you!! 😍 I was very pleased with the choices... since I just grabbed scraps from another project.
I put the ruler on my Amazon wish list.
fun!! You'll have to le me know what you think of it.
I would also like to thank you for "doing the math" and giving us the length of the strips. I can't believe that Creative Grids did not do this. I now see where there is an additional page on the website for the 12" block lengths, but still nothing for the 6" option. I'm with you and want my strips cut before I start. I also wasn't sure about the larger center block and almost blew it off, but I do like how easily it squares the block. From what I understand log cabins can go very wonky if this is not paid attention to. Would love if you could "do the math" for the 6" one. You are a good teacher...thanks again.
I hear you! I'm a geeky tech person, so I don't have a problem with the math, but I know not everyone is, so helping out with that is important. Let me watch the video and get the math figured out for you. 🙂 Thanks so much for watching, and letting me know what else I can do to help.
I happened to look at creative grids 6 inch log cabin trim tool and their center block is not the same size as the one in my bigger ruler with a 12 inch and 6 inch. They do give measurements for that but I can’t imagine that they are exactly right since the center block is a different size. Weird. Thanks for your extremely fast response.
Hmm... that is interesting. I think I might have the 6 inch ruler also, as I didn't realize they both were on the 12 inch. I'll dig them both out and see what I can figure out. Last night was quilt night with my neighbor and I had to get a baby quilt done. I'll check this out and we'll figure it out.
No rush. This isn’t really your problem, but I do have issues with the designer…as I watched you trim all the little tags off, I knew I’d be doing the same thing…in fact, I would cut to the precise size instead of adding the half inch. I know you did that to show the use of the ruler. Anyway, thanks for replying and please take your time or don’t worry about it. :-)
I love your videos. Your instructions are clear, precise, easy to understand and you manage to make everything "doable" regardless of skill level. I am a seasoned sewist but new quilter and have not yet attempted log cabin blocks. I will definately watch you jelly roll log cabin video and will likely purchase this ruler. Thank you so much for all your efforts. One question, can you make that template you used showing the strip demensions available as a free pdf download? That would be very useful.
I'm so glad you found them helpful. Thank you so much for letting me know, and for watching.
Let me check and see what I can do on the download. Thanks for asking
@KimHoward-tt1wq drop me an email at contactme@wendyjhaney.com requesting the 'Log Cabin Trim Tool Two Template.' I actually had one already but forgot to put in the information in the Description. THANK YOU!!
I wonder how it would look with a 3” 4 patch in the center? Might be cute!
That could be very cute. So many things we can do to tweak a pattern/design as we want. :-)
Caddy whompus.
😂
What made you decide to make the center square 3"?
because the ruler doesn't work if you don't start with a 3" center square. It's a requirement. But... once it was all done, I did like the result.
@@WendyJHaney thanks...I may have missed that on your video...my apologies.
@@WendyJHaney I forgot to ask if this ruler can only be used for a 3inch center?
@@rebeccadees2300 Yes. The ruler requires a 3" Center and the strips (for a 12" completed block) be cut at least 2.25" wide.
@@WendyJHaney 👍
What is the advantage of cutting the strips a half inch extra? Aren't you wasting fabric?🤔 Just curious....not meant as criciscim.
because it gives you room to trim it and square it up. If you're really good with straight seams and a good 1/4" seam, then go with the exact size you need. This ruler is meant to allow you to have more room for trimming and squaring up to get more exact in the end. Otherwise - I agree, you do waste more fabric with this method.
@@WendyJHaney thank you! I plan to buy this ruler later...thank you for sharing! I'm watching your jelly roll log cabin tutorial...☺️
These rulers are nice but waste too much material for my budget.
I can understand, not for everyone, that is for sure!
