Image - Easy Edge NEW & IMPROVED
Cutting Edge

The new Cutting Edge tool is great! You put it on the underside of the ruler to mark where you want to cut, and butt the edge of the fabric against it! One of those "why didn't I think of that?!" kinds of tools.
Directions: Apply to under side of ruler at desired rule line. Line up Cutting Edge with trimmed edge of fabric. Check other alignments if necessary, then cut. Store on ruler for future use. (10) 3/8" x 3 3/4" strips.

Image - Ruler The Gypsy Gripper
Sometimes it can be a real challenge to hold your plastic ruler in just the right spot while cutting fabric. And if you happen to slip with the blade, you could end up cutting yourself. Ouch! That's gonna leave a mark! But now, there is a great new way to hold your rulers in place, and it makes using them easier and safer than ever before. Available exclusively from The Gypsy Quilter and our authorized dealers and dis-tributors, it's The Gypsy Gripper. And it's a must-have tool for quilting. The Gypsy Gripper has a comfortable grip handle, and two large round suction cups with handy lock & release levers. Just press the suction cups to any plastic or metal ruler with a smooth surface, then flip the levers to lock The Gypsy Gripper in place. Now you can move the ruler quickly, and easily hold it on the exact position with gentle downward pressure. Your ruler hand will be up and away from the fabric, and out of harm's way if you slip with the cutter. When you need to switch to another ruler, just flip the locking levers to release The Gypsy Gripper.
