    I use the smallest OLFA mat for squaring up pieces and just turn the mat.

    I like mine, but be sure to get it on sale and, hopefully, a coupon too!

    I have the larger size and use it a lot for certain blocks. So much easier than having to turn the big mat or moving from side to side. I use it a lot for pinwheels and HQT's. Got mine at Joann's with a 50% coupon.

    I took an old lazy susan and an old cutting mat and made my own! I cut the mat to the size of the lazy susan and hot glued it to the top. Works great cost nothing!!

    Same here! In fact, my 12" one is very worn right in the center (after 6 years of a lot of use) and I am hoping to replace the top. Have to look for the right glue/cement first!

    I agree. I love and use both of mine.

    Definitely worth the money. I use mine with small blocks and with paper pieced blocks. Don't have to move the block just turn the mat.
