It is stunning. I am very experienced with sewing but I still have a 1/8 inch thickness of masking tape marking my seam allowance to guide the edge of my patches. It really helps me. I don't have to pay a lot of attention and get good results.

My cutting issue is that I am shorter and not at a good angle to hold my ruler steady. So I put felt dots on the one side of the ruler I cut on. I put them every inch. No more slipping. I tried many things but the felt dots had the mega holding power that I needed.
