6daysDay 6…Rotating Mats…by Olfa

Its all about accuracy when it comes to cutting.  The less you have to touch or move your fabric the more accurate you will cut.  This mat is a must for precision cutting especially when cutting for small pieces, where accuracy is a must.  Instead of moving your fabric, you rotate the mat around for the next cuts.  I own both sizes of this mat…they are more expensive then regular mats, but well worth the eliminating the headache of things not being precise…this rotating action lets me stack the fabric for faster cutting, cause lets face it…it is not our favorite part…but being able to stack them and rotate them for the next cut is a LOT easier and no shifting occurs…These mats will be on sale til the end of the year on our site…click here: Rotating Mats

As long as we are talking about mats…I want to bring to your attention the Red colored rotary cutting mats…now I have to admit I am kind of tired of the green colored mats…and this red looks so much better in my sewing room than the green…I received one of these red mats as a Christmas present from Moda last year…it is fabulous…we now have them on our site, just in case you need a new mat to start the new year and want a RED one instead of the green…They come in two sizes…18×24 and 24×36…they are a nice price too!  click here to see about the: Red Mats

Please remember that if you order anything from this 12 day series…it might take a bit to get you things…as we may have to order…we have no control over how many we sell and no matter how hard we try, we will not figure out how to know how many we will sell.  So all I am asking is patience and remember this quilting is fun!!! It is not life or death stuff we are talking about here…so thanks in advance for your patience while we get your orders out to you…

With that said…the winner of Day 7′s post is Comment #138  Chris beresfordDecember 18, 2012 at 9:42 pm

I am a recent thimble convert and I am going to save up for one of these. About the starch thing….I am the ironing queen. If I had more time, I swear I would iron and starch my bras! I have used every brand known to mankind, er, womankind. Currently and for some time I have used concentrated staflo. I like the stiffness of a 50\50 mix. No flaking, ever. Give it a try and let me know I am not crazy. Merry Christmas to you and yours. Chris Beresford…Send us your address Chris!!! Anyone loving to press that much needs a prize…
