Description
The Stripology Quarters Mini squares up blocks, half-square triangles, quarter-square triangles, and flying geese units from 1 3/4 to 6 1/4 inches, with cutting slits every 1/4 inch instead of the 1/2 inch spacing on the Stripology Squared Mini. Designed by Gudrun Erla, it carries whole, half, quarter, and eighth inch markings on one side, with a turn-around side built for 1/4 inch increment squaring.
What's Included
This listing is for the Stripology Quarters Mini ruler only. Fully illustrated step by step instructions are included, and the QR code printed on the ruler links to the how-to video. Fabric, rotary cutter, and mat are not included.
How to Use It
Slits run every 1/4 inch instead of the 1/2 inch spacing on the Squared Mini, with markings for 1/8 inch cuts alongside them; slit lengths alternate between 8 and 9 1/2 inches. Turn the ruler around to square blocks in 1/4 inch increments up to 6 1/4 inches, using the black and white squares as guides. The 45 degree lines trim flying geese units down to 1/4 inch increments. 1 1/2 inch cuts are marked with black stars for quick reference.
Perfect For Cutting
- Squaring blocks, half-square triangles, and quarter-square triangles in 1/4 inch increments up to 6 1/4 inches
- Trimming flying geese units along the 45 degree guide lines
- Fussy cutting and trimming embroidered blocks, where the ruler flexes over the stitching for an accurate edge
- A quarter-inch companion to the Stripology Squared Mini for units that don't land on a half-inch line
Why You'll Love This Tool
The finer 1/4 inch slit spacing makes this the ruler to reach for when a block or unit doesn't land neatly on the half-inch lines the Squared Mini uses. Flying geese, HSTs, and QSTs that finish at odd quarter sizes get their own dedicated markings instead of a workaround.
Same 8 1/2 x 12 1/2 inch footprint as the Squared Mini, so it is a companion rather than a replacement: reach for the Squared Mini on half-inch work, and this one when the project calls for quarter-inch precision.

The Stripology Squared Mini (CGRGE3) uses the same 8 1/2 x 12 1/2 inch footprint with half-inch slits, the better fit for blocks that land on a half-inch. Reach for this one when the project calls for quarter-inch precision or flying geese trimming. Two other sizes complete the family: Stripology XL (CGRGE1XL) and Stripology Squared (CGRGE2).
