I have used the Matt and rotary cutter for a long time! It’s a pain to cut everything with them! Cuts are much straighter! I’ve made ten 6’4” square denim quilts! Can’t imagine cutting all that without! I have a sharpener to sharpen my blades!!

I have a couple of rotary but I can’t figure out how to change one of them, maybe a tutorial on all of them?

In reply to JULIANA.

Hi,

Your issue may be that you are not applying enough pressure on the rotary cutter when making your cuts. Try applying more downward pressure while ensuring that you are holding your ruler properly so it does not shift while you are cutting. Here is a quick video from our sister site National Quilter’s Circle, that should help you:

Hope this helps!

Cheers,

In reply to jean.wozniak. Oh my goodness my blade is indeed in need of a change. I've had it since 1989 and been using it since. I am off to the store to get a new blade today !

In reply to Audrey. Hi Audrey. A general rule of thumb is to change out your blade after every project. If you generally cut thinner, light weight fabric your blade may last longer.

Could anyone say about how long one blade should last please? Not had mine very long and it doesn’t seem to be cutting properly.
