REVIEW

When I think of quilting, I think of lots of cutting, which makes me think of Olfa’s trademark yellow and green rotary cutting products. Olfa is pretty much the top of the line when it comes to rotary cutting because their products each have some unique and helpful features, like the rotating self healing rotary mat included in today’s giveaway package.

If you sew, and especially if you quilt, you need the rotating cutting mat because you only have to position and align your fabric once to make multiple cuts and to get those intricate shapes you need for your quilt design.

The frosted acrylic ruler makes reading the numbers and grid lines, on both light and dark fabrics, so much easier. And it’s covered in markings. The “Pivot Point” angle markings are great for cutting half square triangles, borders, patchwork, strips, bindings, and lots more.

Lastly, the quick change rotary cutter is a heavy duty tool that can be easily adjusted for either right or left hand use. It’s comfortable to hold, sharp, durable, and cuts either straight or curved lines. And when it comes time to change the blade, the process is quick and easy with just a single step.

Olfa rotary cutting products are each designed to save you time and frustration in your sewing and quilting projects. Quilting can require a ridiculous amount of thinking and precision with all the angles and degrees, but Olfa products are designed to make that aspect of your project as easy as possible. I’m thinking I might be able to attempt a more complicated quilt design with these great tools!

  1. I really do need to win this. I haven’t been doing these easy sewing projects I need to complete because I don’t want to have to go buy a rotary cutter and mat. Lame, I know.

  17. Another Olfa product I’d love to own is the Rotary Circle Cutter (CMP-3), it cuts multiple layers at once from size 1-7/8″ to 8-1/2″, and it comes with a lifetime guarantee. I’d also love to win your giveaway so I could finish some sewing projects, including a quilt I’ve been working on and off on for three years! LOL

  48. Thanks for having this giveaway. I asked for a rotary cutter and board for my birthday last month, but didn’t get them. I got a new sewing machine for Christmas and I know I would do so much more sewing if I had a rotary cutter and board – so I hope I win!

  54. Hi, this is coolmom, and I don’t usually say much, but I loved the very large cutting mats. I bought one at “another place” and it smelled so bad for so long and when it finally stopped stinking, it split in half where it folded. And I paid a lot of money for that thing. No coupons or discounts or anything. So I am due a new one! End of story.
