rotating cutting mats
#55
RugosaB, I love your turntable that your hubby made for you. I have a small Fiskar and a larger Olfa revolving mat. The pivoting center of the Olfa was too thick and I had to cut a piece to fit around and glue it to the section the center fit into in order to thicken it enough so it would turn right. I use both mats a lot. I'd prefer something like your turntable.

Mine is either 12 or 14"....I think 12. I love it and use it frequently. I think a rotating mat would be well worth your money, especially if you bought it with coupon. I put my mat on my Xmas list back when I first got back into sewing/quilting several years ago and my dad and step-mom got it for me along with some other items I was asking for. Do you have a birthday or anniv coming up? My DH and kids always know there is probably something I want/need. I think you would like a rotating mat.

I have one. I'm doing a disappearing 4 patch and I have to make two cuts one direction and then two cuts another direction, without disturbing the block, so it is very helpful for that purpose. I don't know how much it will get used once this quilt is done.
