CutRite^TM Sewing Machine Seam Guide

This is an indispensible and handy tool for anyone who sews with a sewing machine. Use it to position your machine's needle exactly where you need it as well as to check the accuracy of your needle's position. You can position your needle perfectly for a scant 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8" or 3/4" seam. It has a ruler with markings to 1/8" and the 45-degree end is very useful when piecing your binding strips together.

To use the seam guide, simply place it under your machine's foot so that the ruler side edge of the guide is aligned with the right edge of the foot. Adjust your needle so that when the needle is lowered, it goes through the hole for the seam size that you want.

CutRite^TM Charm Maker Template

Charm squares (i.e., 5-inch squares) are commonly used in a wide variety of quilt, table runner, wall hanging and bag patterns. Sometimes a pattern calls for lots of charm squares and so buying a charm pack can make sense. However, many times you can't find a charm pack consisting of the colors or fabric designs that you want ... Or, you don't really need a large number of charm squares ... Or, you'd like to use up your stash.

In those cases, the CutRite Charm Maker Template is the perfect tool for quickly and easily cutting 5-inch squares! There's no risk of making a measuring mistake. Plus, the cross-hair lines etched onto the Charm Maker allow you to fussy cut the fabric exactly where you want to - any designs on the fabric are therefore perfectly aligned or centered just the way you want. And, you can use them to easily cut 2-1/2 inch squares!

Divides into thirds ... no math and no measuring!

Nine Patch Quilt Example Photo

Make beautiful Nine Patch quilts, such as this one, fast and easy with the CutRite Nine Patch Ruler!

CutRite^TM Nine Patch Ruler

Nine Patch blocks are one of the most popular and versatile blocks in a quilter's repertoire. However, a key challenge in making them has been that to divide your starting squares into thirds requires math and measuring. (Quick: what's 8 divided by 3? And guess what? You won't find the answer of 2-2/3 anywhere on a ruler since rulers don't measure thirds of an inch.) Why limit yourself to only those small number of sizes where division by 3 is easy?

With the CutRite Nine Patch Ruler, no math and no measuring is required! So, you can now make any finished nine patch block size from 3-1/2 inches to 9 inches! All those 5-inch charm packs and 10-inch layer cakes become perfect candidates for nine patch blocks. The ruler is a little under 12 inches long and consists of a beautiful transparent blue color that's easy on the eyes! To learn more about how this ruler works, read our simple instructions. or click on the button below to watch a short video.

Acrylic Square Templates

There are a few common acrylic square template sizes that are readily available. However, trying to find one that isn't so common is difficult and, often, expensive. No problem! With our laser cutter, we can cut any sizes from 1-1/2 inches to 17-1/2 inches in 1/2-inch increments. These templates are cut from clear acrylic and, for a small amount more, you may order a template with a hole cut into it for hanging on a pegboard and/or crosshairs etched onto it. Regardless of what you order, the size of the template etched is etched onto the upper right hand corner.

Please note that when you select the acrylic template size or change one of the ordering options, the indicated price shown below will automatically update.

If you have any other special requirements or requests, you may specify them in the "Special Instructions" box on the shopping cart's checkout page. Alternatively, you may give us a call or contact us via email. Depending on your request, the price of the cut acrylic may change.

The Thread Stem

Want to use larger spools or cones of thread on your home sewing machine, but the spool pin on your machine won't accommodate such spools? The Thread Stem is the simple, cost-effective solution. For years there have been thread stands, but they take up additional table space, are not portable for travel, and typically cost $10 - $20. The Thread Stem is simple to use (no assembly required!): just insert it onto your machine's spool pin (see pictures at left) and put your thread through the hole at the other end. Its small size means you can take it with you anywhere, so even if you already own a thread stand, take The Thread Stem with you to class, on a trip, or wherever you go to sew. It works on virtually all sewing and embroidery machines and its highly visible red color means you won't lose it! And, as an added bonus, you can use it to push corners out when making a purse, bag or pillow case! Usage directions ...

Acrylic Purse and Bag Bottoms

Acrylic plastic makes for a perfect purse, bag or tote bottom - they're lightweight, have rounded corners and only 1/8" thick, yet are very sturdy, waterproof and won't crack! In fact, larger sizes are perfect for backpacks, gym, duffel, diaper, book and travel bags! Why mess around with cardboard or foam board that isn't up to the task, or wait for someone to cut a bottom out of wood? Optionally cover the acrylic bottom with fabric and place in the bottom of your bag ... or, create a fabric sleeve, tack it to the inside bottom of your bag and insert the acrylic bottom into the sleeve.

We laser-cut the acrylic bottoms to whatever size you want up to 12" x 24" - so virtually any bag can be accommodated! Just select the dimensions you want from the drop-down menus below and click on the "Calculate Price" button to see what the price is. For those of you using a Lazy Girl Designs pattern, the table on the left gives the standard Bag-E-Bottom sizes. Please note that the color of the acrylic used varies.
