How to flatten out rotary mats??
#1
While Mum moved last week, there were two old rotary mats (we still use them for projects) that got a pook in them on the side. Does anyone out there have any good tried and true methods to get them flat again??

i pookified one of my own mats by forgetting it was underneath when i pressed something. after kicking myself a few dozen times, i flattened it back by ironing it again, then quickly stacking big, heavy books on it while it was still warm. i left them there overnight and was relieved to find it was back to normal.

Thanks for the tips.. It is cold and rainy here today, so they won't be going out in the sun, but I might try the ironing then weighing with books technique!
Well back to unpacking and organizing my sewing room. I FINALLY managed to get all my fabrics (well there are still a few straglers) folded and put away in the cupboards. I'll take photos once it looks a little more presentable!
Cheers!

Aggi, do you have a 4-legged helper?
My Sadie has now learned the hard way that the sewing room is a dangerous place. She snuck in and fell asleep behind my chair. I rolled back and heard the yelp. (Did I mention that she has long floppy ears?)

I have one that I forgot in the car in the hot sun. Will put it back out in the sun this summer to see if I can get it back to flat. Don't know why I didn't think of that before. Sun caused it, sun could cure it! :?
