Best of Madam Sew — Cut & Press Edition (Purple Organizer, Quilt Storage Bag)

Celebrate nine years of Madam Sew with the Cut & Press Edition — ten fan-favorite tools that carry a quilt from the first cut all the way to safe, finished storage. This version adds the Lavender Quilt Storage Bag, so the quilt you make has a proper home when it's done.

Trim and square your blocks from one comfortable position on the 360° Rotating Cutting Mat, keeping a clean edge with the five spare 45mm tungsten blades. Press every seam crisp on the 100% New Zealand wool Pressing Mat, and sign the finished quilt permanently with the "Handmade By" Fabric Stamp and Black Ink Pad. Then fold it away in the breathable Lavender Quilt Storage Bag, safe from dust and light until it's needed.

Keeping your tools together: the Purple Carry-All Binder Bag with six matching Binder Pockets, the roll-up Small Accessories Bag, and a Navy Project Bag for your work-in-progress.

Ten essentials. One bundle. From the first cut to the finished quilt, stored safely away.

Why You'll Love It

• Turn the Mat, Not Your Body — The 12"×12" Rotating Cutting Mat spins a full 360° on a lockable mechanism, so you trim and square blocks from one comfortable position — no walking around the table.
• Store the Finished Quilt Properly — The Lavender Quilt Storage Bag (22"L × 15"W × 8"H, fits about two double quilts) protects your finished work from dust, light, and pests with breathable, zero-odor material and a transparent front panel so you can see what's inside without opening it.
• A Fresh Blade Always Ready — The five spare 45mm SKS-7 tungsten steel blades keep your existing rotary cutter cutting clean, so a fresh edge is always one swap away.
• Press Like a Professional — The 100% felted New Zealand wool Pressing Mat radiates heat through both sides of the fabric, setting seams flatter and crisper than an ironing board cover.
• A Coordinated System, Start to Finish — The Purple Binder Bag and matching Pockets file your patterns, the Accessories Bag holds your notions, the Navy Project Bag carries your current make, and the Lavender Storage Bag keeps the finished quilt — every stage covered.
