Speaking of cutting mats. I am a new quilter and I purchased a rotary cutter and mat. When I try to cut something out, I run the cutter away from the ruler. What is my problem? Is it just a matter of practicing? Someone please help. Could it be the cutter?

Judy, It is a matter of practice and also hold your cutter right next to the ruler kinda cutting toward the ruler. Don't go too fast...just practice. I am not a very efficient quilter, but I have seen expert quilters who still sometimes make that curve. Practice, practice, practice.
