How to Use the Log Cabin Rulers
Cutting Strips, Right-Handed

LC BlockIntroduced at Quilt Festival
Our NEW Log Cabin Rulers - now it's easier than ever to make PERFECT Log Cabin blocks! Just follow these instructions, which come with the rulers. Illustrated with Ruler #8038. The procedure is the same for Ruler #8037.

First Cut Strips to Width, Right-handed Cutting is given below.
The same instructions are illustrated for left-handed cutting here.


1.
Select the desired block size and determine which width strip (which side of the ruler) you must use.

2. These instructions result in cutting strips on the lengthwise grain or parallel to the selvage. Assuming you have more than 18" of fabric, open the fabric and fold it crosswise. Place on your cutting mat so that the fold is closest to you and the sme selvage is along the right edge. Line up a horizontal line on a regular 6" x 24" ruler with the fold line and trim away the selvge. Do not move the fabric.
