To ease your mind I have found the very opposite The fabric does not move since the mat revolves very smoothly. I use mine all the time for home and quilt camp.....

I have the 3-piece Roundabout by Martelli, and I love it! It has the cutting mat, turntable, and separate ironing pad that fits right on top of the mat. You can get the 3-piece set, or any one of the components. The 16” diameter lets me use the entire mat as a cutting surface. The turntable has 30 stainless steel ball bearings so it does not tip over. Martelli has an upcoming 1/2 price sale, so that's a great time to purchase.

I have the 17" rotating mat. A few years ago I looked for one like mine for my daughter and couldn't find one, so I bought a turntable at the hardware store, and attached it to a board that fit the 17" Olfa cutting mat. I am not sure, but I don't think they make that particular size anymore. We use them of course for cutting and squaring up blocks, but for any time we need a turntable for anything. We make gingerbread houses every year and place the foundation board on the turntable, then the GB house, and it makes it so much easier to decorate.

Good Idea
I bought one, but it is beveled, and I can't get it flat, make sure if you buy one it lays flat. Mine is no
good at this point.

While reading this post, I thought of a 15 1/2 inch Rubbermaid turntable that my mother used to have in her refrigerator. It's at my house now, and I knew exactly where it was. I had been trying to think of a use for it, and couldn't bear to throw it out. LOL Now I'm going to find a board to fit the top of it and a mat that fits that. If I can't find the correct size mat, I may just use my table saw and cut up my old one to fit.
