CREATIVE GRIDS® MACHINE QUILTING TOOLS—
SHELLY & SID
From Creative Grids USA
Creative Grids recently introduced two new additions to their line of rulers designed by popular quilter, designer, and author Angela Walters. The Shelly ruler allows users to quilt the same-sized clamshell design from either side of the ruler; no need to rotate the quilt. The Sid ruler features a straight side (for straight line quilting), curvy side (for Bracket quilting design), and cut-out center, which will help users master stitching in the seams of a quilt by keeping you on track.
