I have it and I love it. You can cut out strips and squares so much faster. And you don't have to worry about the ruler moving. Lori

I have one too and love it. I got mine at JoAnn's when they had rulers 50% off.

The slotted ruler that El uses is the June Tailor Shape Cut. She discovered it several years ago when she was working on Cross Stitch Quilts and still uses it!

I bought one because one of my friend had it and absolutly loved it. The first time I used it I wasn't impressed. However, I think it had to do with the application - can't remember what I was doing the first time. The second time I was cutting LOTS of 2 1/2" strips or squares or something for a mystery quilt and it worked really well. I used it again last night to cut the fringe on one of those no-sew fleece blankets. Was awesome for that application.

yes, it is one of my favorite rulers.... It sure makes things faster.... I don't know how I went without it for so long....I got mine at Walmart for just under $20.... I am making a double Irish chain and it is perfect for those 2 1/2" sections......

Have one that I've had for years but just started using it the past six months, maybe a little longer. I lave it when you have to cut a lot of strips. so much faster. I don't even remember where I bought mine.
