wool pressing mat
 

does anyone have a wool pressing mat if so how do you like it? What kind of pressing do you do with it??

I have a small one as I only do 6" blocks! I love it! I use it the same as any other mat under my iron. I make my own "best press' and spray it on the piece I'm gong to iron then place it on the wool mat and happily press it! From what I've read, most all of the people that use them love them!

I love mine, i have it on a tv tray next to my machine...it really makes the quilt blocks lay flat and the piecing also..mine is as big as the top of the tv tray..so nice size.. have not regretted the $$ I spent on it..

I have one and love it. Mine is 13"x13". I mostly use it for when I press my jelly roll rugs centers works great. I don't tend to make blocks bigger then 12", so it works for me.

You might also try searching the board, since there are a number of previous discussions.

Here's a recent one Wool Pressing Mat

I have 3 different sizes and I love them. The smallest goes to class with me and the largest is by my iron.

I just got a 17 inch square one as a gift. I love it.

https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images...s/confused.png I have a question about the smell of the wool pressing mat. I have read that the mats smell like "a barn". Does the smell ever go away?

I purchased one a year or so ago but it’s still in the package. I guess I need to get it out and try it.

I have one I use at classes and retreats. I have never noticed a smell..maybe if you get overly wet with spraying fabric.
