If you have a problem with rulers slipping while you are cutting, you'll love the Stripology rulers, after you get it lined up correctly on the fabric. With the Stripology rulers, there is no nudging, that ruler isn't going anywhere, at least not without messing up your layers of fabric. With a June Tailor ruler, I can nudge it into position because there isn't grip on the back of the ruler. I always lift up a ruler to reposition it on fabric, but on huge rulers like these, it's pretty easy to lay it down a little crooked. The Stripology rulers have a LOT of grip on the back, which honestly, I kind of hate. Now, there are multiple aftermarket options for adding grip to your rulers, so to me, that's not a big issue with the June Tailor rulers, but then, I have no problems holding the rulers with no added grip. They slide across the fabric, and if you don't hold them correctly, they will slip and mess up your cut. ![]() June Tailor rulers have no grip on the back. Another issue with thinner vs thicker plastic is weight, the Stripology rulers are much heavier, so if that's an issue, now you know which is heavier, which is lighter in weight.Īnother major difference in the rulers is the grip. So as far as durability goes, I am going to say Stripology wins, but you are going to pay for that, so if money is your main consideration, you will have to decide whether you'd rather pay more less often on Striplogy rulers, or less more often on June Tailor rulers. JoAnn does not carry the Stripology rulers, and you rarely find them on sale. JoAnn Fabrics routinely have the June Tailor rulers on sale or you can use a coupon if they aren't. That said, June Tailor rulers are also much cheaper than the Stripology rulers. I actually taped it back together and still use it as a backup, but with the thinner plastic I would think a break from falling is more likely on the June Tailor rulers. Also, one time I dropped a brand new June Tailor ruler and broke the corner off. Most I've simply worn out through using them so much, and eventually, on a slotted ruler or really any ruler, you will wear away enough of the enough of the edge that the ruler can no longer give you an accurate cut. I've gone through several over the years. June Tailor rulers are made of much thinner plastic that the Stripology rulers. I'm going to try to compare the rulers most similar in style and function, but first I'm going to give you some basic differences in the rulers. ![]()
