I'll find out and get back to you!

Watched several times and still missed the Mertelli info. I did get my rotary cutter and strip ruler at the Plano Quilt Show last Sat. I have major tears and problems with my right shoulder. Friends have been doing my cutting. With the M. rotary cutter I can do my own cutting. He had me try it at the show. I didn't hold it correctly at first. When he helped me do it correctly it was like slicing butter!!! No pressing down and pushing hard.
Now, I want the mat for Christmas or birthday. The special packages were on the HSN website yesterday. |
If you go to the HSN site, they have the products listed...

I ordered two of their special packages. Got the quilter's kit with the two rings and the zip clips, plus I also ordered the set with all of the square and circle templates and the rotary cutter. I thought the prices were pretty good, plus HSN was offering three easy payments on both, so I thought, why not? I've been toying with the idea of buying the Quilt Cut 2, but I might like these better!

Can't wait to hear your review on the two rings.
I love the rotary cutter and the strip ruler I purchased Sat. Now, I know why my cutting had been inaccurate. My other rulers do slip ever so slightly-my fault-not steady enough. I can't say enough good things about the products I have tried so far. I want the mat. Not sure what size yet. Enjoy! Sew happy you made the buys.

Now, I want the mat for Christmas or birthday. The special packages were on the HSN website yesterday. I have shoulder surgery twice on my right shoulder and once on the left. The Martelli Cutter is the greatest. If you use it correctly it does not hurt the shoulder!!!! I was even bad and cut a few things out after my last surgery. I was still in my sling!!!! Couldn't do much else but was able to do some small cutting. There is no way that I could have done that with any other cutter!!! |

Did you have their mat or just the rotary cutter? I have been cutting some tonight and so far no pain!!! I am using green mat not Mertelli. One day I hope to have a M. mat.
