I use the Martelli cutters all the time. I am working on Bali Wedding Star by Judy Niemeyer. It is paper pieced. She has templates to cut the fabric before you actually piece it. I stack the fabric 20 to 30 deep to cut using these templates. It doesn't have to be accurately cut. I have used the slotted ruler sold by Martelli to cut 12 layers of fabric. That has been accurate cuts. The ruler is made of a material that does not slip. Their cutters are the only ones you can use with the slotted rulers. They are big time savers. I love them. I have not tried to cut more than 12 layers when I needed accuracy and it dulls the blade quickly.
