This is a work in progress, as I get new quilting videos I will be posting them here!
Crosshatch Ruler Videos

Double Cross-hatch Design
I have a Crosshatch and Ditch ruler that is my go to ruler. I don't have all the videos completed for the uses of this ruler, but I will be adding videos as I receive them. This is a very versatile ruler with many uses, crosshatch, flying geese, ditchwork, framework and the list goes on. This video shows you the basic steps to using the long cross-hatch ruler to create the cross-hatch design in a wide border. This design is a great border designs, especially if your border is a busy print. The cross-hatch design shows up well where other types of quilting may disappear in the print. You can use the short cross-hatch ruler for ditch work, stitching 1/4" from the ditch and cross-hatch in smaller areas of the quilt. It's my go to ruler for all general ruler work. The Cross-hatch Ruler Triangle Feature.
The small cross-hatch ruler has a triangle cut out feature in it and I am asked often what that is used for, and while I attempt to explain, I can tell it just doesn't make sense. This video is a quick look at one of the uses of this triangle feature. I realized as I was working on a quilt where this feature was useful that a quick video would explain it better than I can. When using a ruler for these small diamond (or square) shapes, with a regular ruler you would have to flip the ruler from side to side a lot. This triangle piece lets you shift your hand from side to side instead of the ruler which, in turn, saves time. |
