How to use the multifunction sewing ruler?
With its large, straight side, you can easily draw lines.
The intermediate graduations make it just as easy to draw parallel lines.
With the 0 in the middle, you can easily measure, scale and find the center between two points.
The entire curved section of the multifunction sewing ruler is graduated from centimeter to centimeter. This makes it easy to measure the length of a curve, for example, to estimate the length of a bias tape. You can also use your measurements to enlarge an armhole, for example.
The all-in-one sewing ruler combines the advantages of a straight sewing ruler with those of a french curve ruler. Using the large outer curve, and the small curves inside the handle, you can create all kinds of curves. The various degrees of curvature reproduce those of the human body: you’ll find everything you need to create anatomical curves for collars, hips, wrists and more.
The entire perimeter of the multifunction sewing ruler is graduated with markings that enable you to create a 5mm or 10mm seam allowance all around a pattern, even on a curve. These same markings are also present around the handle, enabling you to make these cutting markings on all degrees of curvature.
By simply placing the marks at right angles to the straight edge of your fabric, you can create a 45° diagonal with the straight edge of the ruler. This can be particularly useful for making bias tape.
The all-in-one sewing ruler can also be used as a compass. The ruler has holes to accommodate either a point to act as a pivot, or a pencil to draw the arc of a circle at the desired radius.
The all-in-one sewing ruler will be your ally for all your sewing patterns. If you want just one sewing ruler, this would be it! Suitable for beginners and advanced sewers alike.
