Durable Cutting Mats

Our Cutting Mats for Sewing are rectangular and are made of durable materials such as rubber or low-density polypropylene. These hard surfaces are stiff but allow the blade to skim over without cutting into the mat surface. Some Cutting Mats for Sewing can be made with a softer surface but these mats will leave slight scratches in the mats during cutting. After a period of time, you’ll need to replace the softer mat sooner than you will the hard surface or self-healing cutting mat.

Another option of Cutting Mats for Sewing includes the line of self-healing mats. These are manufactured from separate tiny pieces of material which are pressed together to create the solid surface you cut on. Therefore, when you’re cutting, the blade goes between the tiny pieces rather than cutting into the entire unit of the surface. Essentially, the Cutting Mat is absorbing the cut from the blade. This helps to make your blade and cutting mat last longer.
