So, without any further delay or explanation, these are the rulers I would take if I could only take 5 basic quilting rulers with me on a trip. Please know that I only link to items which I personally use and feel that I can confidently endorse. This commission comes at no additional cost to you. However, t he links below is are affiliate links, which means that if you click a link and choose to make a purchase, I will earn a commission. NOTE: Creative Grids is not sponsoring me to endorse their products. If you hold up a Creative Grids ruler with another Creative Grids ruler, the markings will always line up with each other. One thing I noticed from working with lots of different ruler brands is they are not always true to each other. They have these little circles built into them on the bottom that grab fabric which keeps them from sliding around. They are clear, and I can see through them perfectly, enabling me to precisely line up fabric.Today, all of my basic rulers are Creative Grids, which I love for three main reasons: I’ve mentioned in other posts that I spent some time working in a quilt shop, so I’ve seen almost all of them and sold almost all of them. There are a lot of basic quilting rulers on the market, and I have tried (in this order): Fiskars rulers, Omnigrid Rulers, Cut for the Cure Rulers and Creative Grids Rulers.

The quilting world is FULL of paraphernalia. The five rulers I describe below are what I consider my work horses, and with each description I will tell you why I think they are indispensable. (I will try to post about my favorite specialty rulers later.) In my mind, basic rulers are those rulers I grab most often when cutting fabric. This post will be strictly about BASIC rulers.
