I'm still deep in the fabric cutting stage of quilt-making here. My original calculations had it hovering around 1000 pieces to cut and fit together. To ease the pain a bit, I treated myself to a larger, less warped, cutting mat. At 18" x 24", it's by no means huge. But it plays nice on the table with the sewing machine, and it doubles the cutting surface of my last mat, which was one of those cutting/ironing hybrids that I may have, in multi-tasking haste, abused with the iron a bit. And it lays completely flat, which seems to agree with the rotary cutter. Also, treated the cutter with a new blade, so we're rolling along quite smoothly now.
