Tape Measures & Seam Allowance Guides

Accurate measuring and consistent seam allowances are fundamental to well-constructed sewing and quilting projects. The right measuring tools make it straightforward to achieve precise, repeatable results at every stage, from taking initial measurements through to checking seam allowances as you piece.

This collection brings together tape measures, seam gauges, quarter- and half-square triangle seam gauges, and Add-A-Quarter rulers, covering the essential measuring and seam-allowance tools needed for dressmaking, patchwork, and quilting. Add-A-Quarter rulers are particularly useful for foundation paper piecing, where a consistent quarter-inch seam allowance is critical to accurate results.
