Premium Quiltmaking Kit

Olfa

This is an ideal starter kit for those new to patchwork and quilting. The kit includes a rotary cutting mat, a rotary cutter, and a square acrylic rotary cutting ruler, all supplied in the most useful sizes for a beginner.

The rotary cutting mat is 18" x 12" in size. It is of durable multi-layer construction and will not blunt blades. It is printed in Olfa's classic yellow grid on dark green background for high visibility. The mat is printed with metric measurements on one side and imperial measurements on the reverse for dual use. It has 45, 60 and 90 degree angles marked on both sides.

The rotary cutter is the classic Olfa 45mm lock/safety straight handle model, the best seller in the Olfa range. It is supplied with a 45mm rotary blade already fitted.

The ruler is a classic 6 1/2" square Olfa frosted ruler with high visibility, easy to read markings. The ruler is in imperial measurements, marked with clear 1/8th, 1/4 and 1/2 inch markings, and has solid lines at the inch intervals. A 45 degree angle is marked across the ruler with handy notches to indicate corner junctions for adding 1/4" seam allowances to patches. Markings on the ruler are in black, so they show up easily against all colours, including dark colours because of the frosting on the ruler.

This kit represents good value compared to buying the products individually, which is why we recommend it for newcomers to patchwork and quilting.
