Stripology Squared Mini has all of the features of the original Stripology Squared ruler plus a few additional features you will love. It includes markings to square up half-square triangles, quarter-square triangles, and blocks up to 6 inch finished.
The smaller size is easier to manipulate and makes squaring up blocks a breeze. Follow the easy-to-read markings - stars for 1 1/2 inch cuts and squares for 2 1/2 inch cuts, - no math required! Turn the ruler around and use the markings on the opposite edge to cut 1/4 inch and 3/4 inch cuts - no chart required. Or use the 1/8 and 3/8 inch dashed lines to cut eighth inch strips.
The ruler slides easily over the fabric until pressure is applied. Then, our exclusive gripper holds the fabric in place while cutting, eliminating slipping and miss-cuts!
The Stripology® Quarters Mini designed by Gudrun Erla for Creative Grids® is one of the smallest rulers in the Stripology® series of rulers. Designed to work with units up to 6-1/4in, you’ll be able to cut 1/4in and 1/8in increments as well.
· Creative Grids® exclusive non-slip grip allows you to easily slide the ruler over the fabric until positioned correctly. Then, when slight pressure is applied, the grip holds the ruler in place, eliminating slipping while you cut.
· Easy to read black and white markings with cutting slots every 1/4in.
· Whole inch, half inch, quarter inch, and eighth inch increments are marked.
· Turn the ruler around and use the black and white squares to square up blocks in 1/4in increments up to 6-1/4in.
· Use the 45 degree lines to trim flying geese units down to 1/4in increments.
· 1-1/2in cuts are highlighted with black stars.
· Great for fussy cutting and trimming embroidered blocks. The flexibility of the ruler adjusts for the thickness of the embroidery, giving you and accurate trim every time.

This sweet little squirrel is named after ‘Sue’ a.k.a Suraliyama - one of the lovely sewists I met in India when I visited Bluemango. There I saw the cutest Indian squirrel which the locals call ‘aneel’ and thought it was a toy design just begging to be made! This toy pattern has some small pieces so I wouldn’t recommend it for a beginner toy maker who should start with one of my easy patterns.

I sewed my squirrel with quilting cottons. You could use minky, cuddle and even fake fur especially for the tail to give your squirrel a fun fluffy look.
