Finish that quilting or sewing project in record time with a Madam Sew Rotary Cutter! Quilters already know the benefits of cutting with a rotary cutter and cutting mat instead of scissors but sewists can also benefit from cutting fabric with rotating cutting blades! A rolling razor blade cuts fabrics faster, more layers and allows you to cut very accurately.

• SHARP - Your rotary cutter is as precise as you are! Razor sharp tungsten steel means you barely have to press while the blade melts through multiple layers of fabric, felt, vinyl or leather. Precision engineering ensures an edge that lasts and lasts without skipping.

• ERGONOMIC - The rotary cutter handle design guarantees maximum comfort and won't wear your hands out during long sewing and quilting sessions. The cutters are suited for both right and left hand users. There is a hole in the handle to hang it on a hook, on your peg board or attach a little loop through it with a tag.

• SAFE - The sliding blade protection on both sides prevents accidental cuts from the very sharp blade. Always engage the blade guard when the cutter is not in use.

• We carry Replacement Blades at very good prices that fit various brands.

 Check out our other rotary cutter sizes:

• 28mm Rotary Cutter
• 60mm Rotary Cutter

Specifications

• 3 BLADE SIZES AVAILABLE: 60mm or 45mm or 28mm

The larger the blade size, the more fabric you can cut and the faster you can cut it. The smaller the blade, the more versatile your cutter will be. A 28 mm rotary cutter is used mainly for making small cuts or for cutting curves. The 45 mm is the allrounder. The 60 mm is the best choice if you mainly want to cut straight lines, lots of yards and multiple layers of fabric. 

• The 45 and 60 mm rotary cutters are 7 ⅝ inches long. The 28 mm cutter is 6 inches long.

• Material: tungsten steel blades + plastic loop handle

The MadamSew Sewing Machine Pedal Mat has been exclusively designed to solve a common problem when using your sewing, embroidery or Serger machine.

Have you ever tried to step on your sewing machine pedal and found that it is not where you thought it was? Or maybe you were sewing along and your pedal kept moving so you were contorting to press down on it while you kept sewing? If that is the case, then the Sewing Machine Pedal Mat is for you!

This pedal mat will help keep your sewing machine pedal from moving or slipping as much. Therefore, allowing you to focus on your project, not on chasing your pedal. And, it protects your flooring from scratches or damage which is another great reason to have one!

Easy to use without the need to attach the mat to either the pedal or your flooring. Light and small enough to take with you to a class or sewing group. Works well on most flooring surfaces.

For best results, place the mat logo side up and wavy side down. Then sew, embroider or serge away!

We also carry a Sewing Machine Muffling Mat to reduce your machine's vibrations, movement and slipping.

And we carry Non-Slip Adhesive Rings that you can put on the bottom of your pedal mat if you have very, very slippery floors.

Specifications

• Materials: TPE Rubber
• Size: 7” x 10” (18cm x 25.4cm)
• Thickness: 0.3” (8mm)

Instructions & More

How to Use:

• To use, place the Sewing Machine Pedal Mat, logo side up, where you want your sewing pedal to be, then place your pedal on top. You are now ready to sew.
• It does move a little so you can reposition it without having to crawl under your sewing table. Just push the mat to the place you want it to be with your foot.
• Works well on most flooring surfaces.
• If you have very, very slippery flooring, you may want to consider adding our Non-Slip Adhesive Rings to the bottom of the mat.

How to Care for Your Mat:

• Clean your Sewing Machine Pedal Mat with soap and water; then either air or towel dry completely before using.
• Do not leave or place in the sun.
