Thanks ... but back to my original question .... what do those rotary mats offer me beyond what I am achieving with my 2nd mat on top?

As time went on, I'd occasionally find a deal on quality fabric, and was amazed by the difference. It cuts better. It sews better. It turns out a much better product. It didn't take long for me to turn into kind of a fabric snob. Although I'm willing to pay more for quality, I still look for deals on "the good stuff"!

.... it even irons/presses better!
Absolutely ... watch for sales, end-of-bolt pricing etc. and you can sew with quality fabric all the time!
