Review on Calibre Art Rotating Quilting Projects Sewing in Quilting by Karla Richter

I have to admit I've only had the cutting mats for a week (I bought an 8" square and an 18" square). So far, so good. The surface of the mats is really wonderful and heals quickly. As far as I can tell, the rotating part doesn't detach from the base; I love this feature. If I find myself wrong I will correct this review. Also, the mat gets a bit harder than my round Martelli mat (but I don't really like the surface of my Martelli spinning mat) and my 8 inch Fiskar mat. The Fiskar mat doesn't heal well, so I like my new slingshot mats much, much better. The 18 inch square mat is really great for big squares that my Martelli can't handle, another plus. In addition, the bottoms of the rugs are strong and stay in place when rotated, and the rugs are nice and sturdy and not flimsy at all. Finally, the price is pretty good, especially when compared to Olfa, Martelli and Fiskars.
