Bloc Loc Half Square Triangle Multiple-Sized 6-1/2 Quilting Ruler with Grid Lines

Im working on the Ribbon Runs Thru It BOM kit, and there are a gajillion half and quarter square triangles in it. I have NEVER been fully successful with HST and QST before - that is, until I invested in one of the best rulers EVER! Yes, I could trim my HST and QST triangles with any ol square ruler, but the ruler always slips just a bit, and those pesky corners are just 1/16 or 1/32 off. My anal-retentive nature just wouldnt accept anything less than spot on, so the Half Square ruler to the rescue! My blocks all trimmed perfectly, they nested perfectly, and they sewed perfectly. I was also able to use the 1/2 markings to trim my QST - BO-NUS! Buy it - youll be glad you did!

This little piece of plastic is a miracle tool. How often I have struggled with half square triangles that were off just enough to ruin the pattern on a quilt. Youll find a quick tutorial on YouTube, and off you go, into the world of perfect triangles. Get one - youll wish you had it a long time ago - I did!

Best ruler for squaring up half square triangles. And I have tried a bunch!

It makes squaring up a lot easier.

The blockloc HST ruler is the best tool you can have if you make HST’s in your quilts. I have had mine for years, once I started using it on a regular basis I am doing much better about NOT losing my points when I assemble my blocks. You will absolutely NEVER REGRET spending money on this tool. If you need a “ “sharpest tool in the box” this is it!

Until another quilter told me about this I didn’t know it existed. Now I can’t live without it!!!

Makes my HST’s oerfect

I have several sizes of bloc loc rulers and love them. I bought this one for 5” blocks but it didn’t work like the others. I recommend looking at Utube video for this 61/2” ruler. It is used a little differently than others
