It is the measurement that was marked on the first patchwork ruler I purchased, which was an Australian one, but Omnigrid metric rulers also use .75 On top of that, it is easy to sew with the width of the standard foot on my Elna machine. The foot is 1.5cm across, so with the needle exactly centred I'm getting the correct seam width when I run the foot along the cut edge of the fabric.<br /><br />0.75 also makes triangle cutting calculation easy - for squares add 1.5cm, for half-square triangles add 2.5, and for quarter-square triangles add 3.5cm. I don't know what the equivalent would be if you used .5cm. I found this 1.5, 2.5, 3.5 easy to remember. I have trouble with the inch equivalents - have to look them up every time I am forced to use quarter inches!Vireyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16464838238295059335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3778577918726427465.post-90467324876251439972016-11-05T19:55:17.097+01:002016-11-05T19:55:17.097+01:00Those charity blocks are so cheery!
