    5" ruler

    I can't believe MSQ has stopped making the 5" charm ruler! I have look & looked but can't find anything, they used to also sell another brand, but that's gone too. Guess I'll shop elsewhere

    I put 5" rulers in the search bar, these popped up. I use their 5"x15" all the time.

      Have you owned a 5'' ruler before? I gave mine away in the you can have it group many years ago. I agree on the ruler Katrina mentioned. I use it for everything!

          When you said "charm ruler" I immediately thought of this one (for cutting charms in half)

          Fits perfectly with a Mini Charm Pack as well as the Jelly Roll. It also fits diagonally across a 5" charm pack.Missouri Star 2.5" x 8" Ruler

            I ordered a spare in November. It is called a Cutrite Charm Maker. It is unavailable but shows more coming mid February. I use this all the time!

            What do you do when you want to cut your own Charm Squares (5" squares)? You use the "CutRite Charm Maker Template"! It's the perfect tool to quickly and easily cut 5-inch squares. There's no risk of making a measuring mistake, also the cross-hair lines etched onto the Charm Maker allow you to fussy cut the fabric exac

              I know what you are talking about because I got one several years ago from M*. The first one came with a corner broken off and they sent a second.

              …..wonder where that thing is?

                I use my charm maker and the 5 by 15 ruler quite often. Why not try the chat option on the website? They are very fast with a response and always the sweetest politest staff you could hope to deal with.

                  It actually says the 5 x 5 charm maker will be back in stock mid February.

                    Thank you, the Cutrite was the one I lost! Not sure why it didn't come up when I searched. All the suggestions, were much appreciated. Guess my rulers (2) lost will be found with all those missing socks one never finds! Thanks again

                      It always seems to turn up once you give up looking and order a replacement, too! Looks like those CutRites did come in, and are showing as available to order. (The search still shows unavailable, but the product page itself shows the lovely Add to Cart button). Here's the link if you still need it:

                        I have a 5x5 charm template from Martelli. I like it because I can easily cut multiple pieces at one time with no slipping. It happened to be a quilt show special when I got it for $5.

                              Isn't that always the way!

                              I couldn't find my dental insurance card... it was at the dentist office, found out after I ordered the replacement.

                              Glad you found the one you lost. Now you have a spare. Nothing wrong with that!
