Soaked cutting mat
I just got home from a 10 day visit with my daughter. We spent nearly all our time quilting and knitting. Her cutting mat felt dried out and brittle. We tried soaking it in the bathtub then letting it dry and were really impressed with the results. Now that I'm home I can't wait to soak both of mine.

After reading a thread about soaking/cleaning your cutting mat here on another thread, I filled my tub with a few inches of warm water, added some vinegar and let the mat soak for about ten minutes. Then I used a vegetable brush to scrub it gently, rinsed it and dried it with a big towel. I am amazed at how it has perked that old mat up!

Aloha! Wait until spring when kiddie wading pools are available in stores if you don't already have one. Wait for nice weather and put the wading pool on a flat surface such as a driveway and proceed using the instructions in the link.
