How many Cutting Mats Do You Own?
#73
Only a couple. I bought a cheap 23x23 when I started quilting and the rotary cutter I bought came with like a 4x12 (something like that) cutting mat. Think the reason why I only have two is when I tried rotary cutting I couldn't get the hang of it, got turned off by it, and stuck with the scissors. But I picked up rotary cutting again (only binding strips at the moment) so I might buy a new cutting mat.

I have three:
17' rotating square
17 X 23
24 X 36
I use the largest one, on my cutting table, the most. I want to get a smaller one, maybe 12" square or so, to put next to the sewing maching. I do have the rotating one there right now, but rather have it available at the cutting table.
I might get the ironing/cutting one, instead of just a smaller square, for the sewing machine area, and to use for classes. On the other hand, having to get up to walk to the cutting table or the iron is "exercise", right? Maybe I should buy fabric with that money instead:D
