Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between this and the standard single-sided mat at this size?
- The dual-sided design gives you two grid options in one mat. Many quilters find one grid better for strip cutting and the other more useful for squaring blocks. Having both on one mat is more economical and space-efficient than buying two separate mats.
- How many layers of fabric can I cut through on this mat?
- Self-healing mats are used with rotary cutters through multiple layers of quilting cotton — typically 4–8 layers depending on fabric type and blade sharpness. The mat surface handles multi-layer cuts without permanent grooving.
- Does the dual-sided mat have the same self-healing properties as single-sided?
- Yes — both sides of the Quilters Select dual-sided mat are self-healing cutting surfaces. You can use either side for rotary cutting without affecting the other.
- Is this mat appropriate for use with the Quilters Select non-slip rulers?
- Yes — Quilters Select mats and rulers are designed as a coordinated system with compatible measurement grids for consistent cutting reference.
- How should I care for this mat?
- Store flat at all times. Clean with mild soap and water. Keep away from heat sources. Do not store heavy objects on top of the mat which can cause permanent deformation.
