Hi , I am a Raw beginner at patchwork, and I live in Australia
I read up all the tips I can find. I have made my first quilt."out of my head" and it is not too bad, I think! I am 80 yrs. young , so hope I can really stay around to make more !

I would like some ideas on the best rotary cutter to get, I bought one, but have trouble cutting through any more thjan one piece of material

Hello, and welcome from Idaho! My favorite rotary cutter is the 60mm Olfa.

Welcome to the board from Northern NY.

Hi from Ohio!

I am fairly new too...I have found that I need to change the blades often. I am hoping there is a sharpener to help save the cost of having to get a new blade for every project I do. I am also looking into the machines that cut the materials and patterns. Like the Baby Go, so far I have seen a lot of good comments on this board about the machines.

Welcome Jeannie,Im Dori and Im fairly new here myself..Although Ive been a selftaught quilter I enjoy just thinking about what colors and patterns will go together well...Ive only just started having time for quilting and it brings joy to me everyday..I am 58 and have 8 grandchildren and 3 greatgrandchildren...You'll find everyone very friendly here...

Good morning! i use the 45mm rotary cutter,no special brand, i have several.
you should be able to cut through 4 layers of fabric, maybe the blade is dull already?
i have a seperate cutter i use just for batting, and squaring up the quilt. i think the batting dulls the blade..IMHO
