All the ladies in my quilt group have had me pick them up-awesome price! About twice as thick as the others. The brand is Alvin.

this is what they are, but those prices are about double what I pay at the college. If you have a college nearby, you could always check there!
Happy cutting!
I've had an Alvin mat for more than a year, and love it. Didn't know about the college connection and there's a college in my town.
Mine came from Hayneedle.com; 30 x 42 inches for $64, free shipping if I remember correctly.
