Having arthritis - it is much easier on me to have a revolving mat. The cost was terrific - it was on sale plus 60% off - cheaper than a square mat. There are times the fabric shifts and the fabric is no longer flat when you pick it up to turn for squaring, so you are more apt to have errors. A small mat to turn would work if you have one but except for my revolving mat, all of my mats are rectangular and large.
