The Gripper ensures complete control of your small rulers and templates, and keeps your fingers out of harm’s way - making this a must have for any new or young quilter! This smaller size is also perfect for long arm quilters. Hold the templates with the Little Gypsy Gripper to protect fingers when stitching. Note: The ruler or template must be at least 2 ¼ inches or larger – excluding the hang hole – to be effective.
