Peel crystal clear Grip Strips (11¾” long) off the brown backing paper.
Perfect!

Step 2:
Attach Guide Lock Strips Underneath Your 24" Ruler.
Guide Lock Strips keep the long, 24” Fabric Guide, from shifting in the middle underneath your ruler no matter how much fabric you are lining up to.

Guide Lock Strips come with permanent adhesive.
Get extra strips here if you have more than one 24" ruler or in the case your ruler breaks.
Step 3: Clip the Fabric Guides onto Your 12" & 24" Rulers.
Important: Keep the Fabric Guides Straight.
The Fabric Guides are made of tough polypropylene, but they have to be very thin to fit under your ruler. Be sure not to bend them when you slide them on or slide them off.

Kathy Oster - Lewistown, MT
"I bought your quilt guide set from the new quilt shop here in Lewistown, MT and I've never been happier with a tool! I'm getting on in years(74) and my sight isn't what it was but the guides made cutting my last quilt blocks so much easier!!! Wish I'd had them a lot sooner in my sewing life. Thank you for the best quilting tool I've ever owned!"
Judith Armstrong - Truckee, CA
"I use your guides (Quilt Ruler Upgrade Kit ) almost daily and find they are a lifesaver. Thank you for designing them and making them available."
Leann Ivins Williams via Facebook
