Fit and buying advice

The outside dimensions make this a compact checking tool. Compare the 1 × 6-inch ruler when a longer narrow seam guide is more useful, or a full-length strip ruler if your cut needs more than 4½ inches of continuous reach.

Questions about this tool

Is this a template for 2½ × 4½-inch raw rectangles?

Those are the outer dimensions. Match them to the pattern’s cut size before using the perimeter.

Which marks help with diagonals?

The listing identifies black and white 45° reference lines.

Will it fit a small portable mat?

Compare the actual 2½ × 4½-inch body and leave room for the fabric and blade.
