Tips or Tricks for gridding?

Post by Oriettait »

So I have ordered my washable fabric marker and I am going to try gridding when I will start the HAED Peacock in full bloom.
I was wondering if there is a device to speed up the counting when gridding, I thought this might be it http://www.sewandso.co.uk/Products/Cros ... T2492.aspx but then realized it does not...
what I am looking for is something that has a mark on the 10th line for the different count of fabric, anybody know if it exist?

Make your own ruler type for the count you want to use

I was actually thinking about that but being hopelessly lazy I was curious to know if there is something already done out there :oops:
