As you all know, I designed my new 10” Slicer quilting ruler and I would love to share with you a project that you can make using my ruler. As well as, tips and tricks when quilting with my 10” slicer quilting ruler. Apparently, I made my ruler for pre-cut 10” fabric squares, and these kinds of fabrics are available at your quilt shops. However, you can also cut your fabric scraps into 10” fabric squares.
One of the quilt blocks that you can create is the Basic Sliced Block. It is a quilt block with contrasting colors, a lighter shade fabric and the other is darker. In order to square up my quilt blocks, I just use the 90o angle of my ruler. Then out of these blocks, I made my sliced quilt. It is a crib-sized quilt, a perfect charity giveaway, and also works as a wheelchair lap quilt.
Aside from the ruler, I also use a rotating mat, basting glue, and my rotary cutter. And when using 10” fabric squares, I prefer to use around 12” to 13” cutting mats. The rotating mat is quite handy when quilting during weekend retreats or quilting classes. And as for the basting glue, I prefer to use the washable glue by Elmer’s. Also, I found these fine line glue tips which are just convenient to use and they come in different sizes.
