A fabulous stand for all my rulers. Her DH made it for me and I love it….. Sew easy to access the rulers when I want one…. Thanks Brian…..

    Your flowers are always so cute. The ruler stand is great. How nice to have a "handy" husband.

    Your hexies are looking good all in rows--great job!!
    and I love the embroidery piece--cute--
    I use an old file holder --of some sorts that hold my rulers standing up--
    but your is much prettier than mine!!

    Is that a new trend - wearing your hexies? I think a design wall would be much easier. LOL! What a great ruler holder. Like Di, I use something from the office supply store, designed to hold files. Not nearly as nice as yours, but it does the trick. Stitch on.

    I know you don't want to lose any of your hexies but stitching them to your leg is going a bit far! LOL! Cute stitchery. How nice of Brian to make you a ruler stand.

    Lovely hexies. The stand is a great idea; tell that man he could make a lot of money if he made a few of those and sold them at local markets!
