Big when you cut. Small when you don't.
No choosing between room to cut and somewhere to put it. Open it for the whole cut, fold it when you're done, and get your table back.
Open: 23.6 × 35.4 in Open it flat
Unfold all three panels onto a flat, stable table and let the mat settle. You get a full cutting surface with nearly twice the area of an 18 × 24 mat, so a long cut is one cut.
Fold it into thirds
Two wave-cut joins lock the panels together like jigsaw pieces and sit flush, so your blade crosses without catching. Fold the panels in and you're left with a neat block.
Stand it, store it, take it along
Stand the block on a shelf, slide it into a drawer, or pack it in a bag or the back seat of the car for class or retreat. Open it again wherever you sew.

Designed for Real Sewing Life
Quilter or garment maker, tucked into a corner or set up in a full room. Here is how the Tri-Fold Mat fits the way you sew.
For Quilters
A large self-healing mat that keeps up with block cutting and strip piecing. At 23.6 × 35.4 in, a long strip is one cut instead of three, and the surface is made for years of rotary cutting.
For Sewists Short on Time
It opens, you cut, and it folds back into three panels. Set up fast, put away just as fast, so a quick 15 minute project stays a quick project.
For Small Spaces
Apartments, shared rooms, dorms, or the dining table. It folds to 23.6 × 11.8 in and stands on a shelf, so a full size mat never feels like a compromise.
For Your First Sewing Space
Just getting set up? You get a full size, professional feeling surface in a footprint that makes sense while you are still finding your setup.

Get Your Mat →We've Got Answers
It is the first thing every quilter wonders, and it is a fair question. The two fold lines are not straight. Each one is cut as a wave, so the panels interlock like jigsaw pieces and there is no straight channel for a blade to drop into. The seam sits flush, with no lip and no gap. And if it ever does catch on the seam, send it back and we will refund you.
Open it fully and let it settle flat on your work surface before you cut. Ours travelled from the factory folded for several weeks and lies flat, and the seam sits flush with nothing standing proud of the surface.
It opens to 23.6 × 35.4 in (60 × 90 cm). The mat most shops stock, and the one most people already own, is 18 × 24, so this gives you nearly twice the cutting area. A long strip is one cut instead of three.
It folds into three panels to 23.6 × 11.8 in (60 × 30 cm). The folded block holds its shape and stands on its end by itself, so it goes on a shelf, into a drawer, or behind a door.
Long strips, the full width of quilting cotton, quilt blocks, garment pieces, home decor and bag making. The printed grid and the 30, 45 and 60 degree angle lines help with triangles and bias cuts, and you can cut paper crafts on it too. Use the right blade for the material.
Self-healing means the multi-layer surface is designed to close up the small cuts from normal rotary cutting, so it stays smooth through years of use. It does not mean deep cuts or damage disappear completely.
The backing is non-slip, so the mat stays put on your table through long cutting sessions.
Most sewists end up with more than one mat, because each one does a different job. This one is the big surface, and it folds away when you are finished. Keep the mats you love. If you use a Rotating Cutting Mat for squaring up blocks, it sits nicely on top of this one as a companion for detail work.
Yes. Folded, it is under 12 inches across, so it lies flat in the trunk and stands up behind a seat. It is still a large mat when you open it, so it is easier to carry than a rigid one of the same size, not a pocket-sized travel mat.
