Jaybird Quilts Sidekick Ruler - 60 Degree

The Jaybird Quilts Sidekick Ruler is a clever multi-shape tool that brings speed, accuracy, and effortless geometry to your quilting.
Designed by Julie Herman of Jaybird Quilts, this handy ruler cuts diamonds, 60° triangles, and half-triangles — all from your fabric strips, with no tricky maths required.
Made from durable clear acrylic with bold, easy-to-read markings, the Sidekick ensures perfect alignment and crisp, consistent shapes every time.
Whether you're cutting pieces for Jaybird patterns or designing your own layouts, this ruler makes geometric piecing simple, accurate, and incredibly fun.
It’s the perfect companion to the popular Hex N More and Super Sidekick rulers, and is used in many bestselling Jaybird Quilts patterns including Sidekick, Northern Lights, Rock Candy, Seaside, Tiny Dancer and more.
Fast, friendly, and beautifully precise — the Sidekick does far more than its size suggests!
