CM Designs CMD80008 Ruler 8" Add-an-Eighth Plus , Green

I’m currently working on 4” FPP blocks with a lot of tiny detail. These seams allow the blocks to lie flat, whereas the 1/4” seams were way too bulky.

This ruler is great for FPP especially for 8 pointed stars.

I use a CM 1/4 in Add-a-Quarter Plus ruler for Foundation Paper Piecing a lot. Often though, I've thought a little more carved off the seam would help my finished pieces lie a bit flatter. So, now I've added this CM Designs CMD 80008 Add-an-Eighth Plus Ruler to my tool selection. It is fabulous! Use it for really small, fine work (think pinwheels, stars and Mariner's Compass medallions) where lots of thin pieces come together for a central point, or fitting pieced detail work such as the eye of lion. I use the Plus edge to crease the paper pattern out of the way and then Add-an-Eighth edge to trim the seam allowance. Perfect...every time. The Add-an-eighth Plus is also my go-to choice to trim tiny little seams for dolly clothes. For that purpose it even makes the seam allowance small enough to become an enclosed or french seam and then it doesn't matter how often that garment is "Laundered" on play day. Add this tool to your collection, you will find it very helpful.

I love that this has a 1/8th inch ledge for cutting the paper pieced seam allowance. It’s perfect for this tiny paper pieced patterns. And the tapered edge on the opposite side is great for folding the paper.

Great product

Perfect for ⅛" seams for small detailed paper piecing.

Just what I was looking for.

Works well with foundation paper piecing of mini quilt blocks. I bought this for a workshop and it was perfect.
