It's interesting that there are several posts about Martelli products. I did not see this one when I posted my question. And there is another thread also. All regarding Martelli. I'm considering getting a mat, a ruler, and the main thing I was looking for, a new cutter. My wrist is really letting me know its time to be kinder to it. I do have a Acuquilt cutter and dies but I still do a lot of rotary cutting. Whew, lots to think about! Since I've been retired I've looked at costs more closely. I'm thinking of this as an investment that will last a long time. Hopefully this is the case. We are so fortunate to have the Quilting Board. I do not have another place to go to for answers or to bounce around ideas.
Prisim please let us know how the mat is working out for you. Congratulations on what looks to be a good choice.
