Your Cutting Is Only As Good As Your Blade


With all of the fast piecing techniques taking the spotlight in the project category these days, you need to make sure that you have the best tools in your hands. A rotary cutter should always have a sharp blade.

Avoid running over pins or dropping on the floor. If you have done either of these two things to your rotary cutter, replace the blade as soon as possible. If your blade is dull due to too much cutting, you can sharpen your blade using a rotary blade sharpener. Many of the blades are available in multi-paks. It's a big savings if you can purchase them in bulk.
Remember ...A successful project begins and ends with the right tools.


Happy Cutting,

Kelly

P.S. If you have Clover rotary cutter, only use Clover replacement blades. These blades have been especially designed for the Clover cutter.
