Your cutting mat will last longer if you soak it in your bathtub in vinegar water. I have the "recipe" but am unable to find it right now. Go to the Internet and search for "cutting mat" and you will find it. Also, be sure you use new or fairly new blades. I learned the hard way not to use worn out blades; you cut too deep into the board, scoring it (the vinegar water bath also helps this). I buy new blades in bulk. The last bulk was from Quilting Bee and I will reorder when necessary. If you really need/want a new cutting board, try Quilting Bee. Comes in various sizes. My last board is 2-sided; green, which I'm familiar with, on one side; blue on the other. Each side has white lines/numbers - easy to read. God bless you in your adventures of quilting.
