Measure accurate, precise seam allowances. Use alongside a magnetic seam guide, roller edge guide, or laser guide for ultimate sewing consistency. Or simply mark your seam edge with a line of masking or washi tape. Whether you are sewing fabric or leather, accurate and consistent seams are one of the keys to a quality finished product. This Sewing Seam Guide Ruler gives you the confidence to quickly set multiple seam allowances in Imperial (inch) and Metric (millimeter) measurements. Plus, the guide includes a ruler for quick measurements.

To use the guide, insert the sewing machine needle into one of the holes in the ruler, lower the presser foot, and mark the edge of the guide to the right. This is a great tool and gift for anyone using a sewing machine, whether a beginner or advanced sewer. The seam allowance guide will help make consistent seams. Plus, it removes the guess work when switching between seam allowance measurements. Whether quilting, dressmaking, home sewing, or leather working, this tool will become one of your most-used sewing supplies.

    I've wanted something like this for so long! I have patterns from a wide variety of sources with varying seam allowances. I don't always recall where to position my needle for each different one. A seam gauge isn't as accurate. I love these guides because I can put the needle IN the hole, and then figure out where the edge of the fabric will go. If there aren't any good markings for the measurement, then I can fiddle with the needle position so some marking on the foot lines up with the edge. I reach for this item so often! I bought the metric and imperial versions. Such a helpful little sewing tool. The etched acrylic will likely last longer than I will.

    Finally! I can know exactly where the needle is hitting my fabric. I'm using this in combination with Cluck Cluck sew 1/4 measuring washi tape. I can readjust the tape for when I want a true 1/4" versus a scant 1/4" (7mm) because I bought both the metric version and the inch version. A true lifesaver "must-have" tool for any quilter!

    measurement worked perfectly for a project that I was working on, it showed the exact space so I didn't have to find a ruler that had all the measurements. Great idea

    I have a 65 year + Commander sewing machine which I use to piece quilts. I love its simplicity, only has 2 stitch settings - frontwards and reverse! - but it does not have a seam guide. So I was pleased to find this tool. I am sure that it will help. Looks very sturdy - arrived quickly. Thank you!
