It features easy-to-read black and white markings printed in 1in grids marked in 1/8in and 1/4in increments. Use the black numbers (printed on white dots) and the 1/4in grip sides to cut whole inches, while the white numbers (printed on black dots) and the 1/2in grip sides add the 1/2in seam allowance.
