Collection: Rulers
Famore’s Rulers collection offers 6 precision quilting rulers and templates from Quilter’s Select — including non-slip acrylic rulers in 2.5” x 18”, 2.5” x 36”, and 8.5” x 24” sizes, plus specialty template rulers for specific quilt blocks. Non-slip coating on both sides keeps rulers firmly in place during rotary cutting, improving accuracy and safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do quilting rulers have non-slip coating?
Non-slip coating grips the fabric surface and prevents the ruler from sliding during rotary cuts — one of the most common causes of inaccurate cuts and dangerous blade deflections. Quilter’s Select non-slip rulers use a grip coating on both sides so the ruler stays put whether you’re right- or left-handed.
What ruler size should I start with for quilting?
The 6” x 24” and 2.5” x 36” are the most versatile starter rulers — long enough for cutting strips across the width of fabric, and narrow enough for precise strip cutting. An 8.5” square ruler is also essential for squaring up blocks.
What are template rulers used for?
Template rulers are shaped acrylic guides for cutting specific quilt block shapes — circles, arches, stars, and specialty curves — with accuracy that’s difficult to achieve freehand. They pair with rotary cutters for fast, repeatable cuts of identical shapes.
