Love my Olfa
|
What will she be using it for? If cutting larger strips and pieces, a regular mat would be good. But, If doing a lot of smaller cutting or trimming, a rotating mat is wonderful! And, it is usually that 'treat' buy that we don't get for ourselves!

I have an Olfa 12" and I love it. Great gift for you MIL.

NZ, I bought the Matilda mat on Craftsy and love it. I'm wondering if maybe it's sold out? I don't know. I got it for half price several months ago.
Whichever one you buy will be a wonderful gift for your MIL!!! PS. I have the square Olfa rotating mat but I don't like it very much. I like the round one a lot better. |
I love my 12" Olfa. It doesn't wobble and is steady yet turns easily

I have a square mat & the Martelli and I prefer the Martelli. I purchased it during 1 of their 1/2 off sales & got the 3 pc.
I don't use the ironing mat often but am glad I got it. |
I have the Olfa and hate it . It wouldn't stay together. I bought the Matilda one from craftsy . I used the Fiskars square mat and liked that also.
|
Martelli. I love mine so much I bought my sister one.

One thing to consider is that the square rotating mats have corners that snag things. When this happens you can mess up what you are cutting. Ask me how I know... I have since gone to Martelli's roundabout. This works much better.
