The first three things I purchased when I began quilting:
- The book Quilts! Quilts! Quilts! (by Laura Nownes and Diana McClun–now available for $2.50 on Amazon!),
- an OLFA rotary cutter
- an OLFA cutting mat.
I have an OLFA rotary cutter in every sewing room drawer-in a variety of sizes and styles-so I was thrilled and honored when OLFA asked me to be an OLFA Creator for their first ever Design Team!
The OLFA Design Team will be showcasing OLFA’s many products and offering a wide variety of free projects on the new OLFA website. The projects will include tailoring, DIY, quilting, sewing and so much more!
OLFA is kicking off 2018 with a new website and new products including more OLFA Splash–rotary cutters and mats in bright new colors- purple, pink and aqua!
Over the next year, I will keep YOU updated. We will be trying a variety of OLFA tools like circle cutters and art knives as well as OLFA’s frosted rulers. I’m really excited to try their new line of Endurance Blades–-and keep YOU updated on all the latest and greatest!
OLFA rotary cutters revolutionized quilting and continue to inspire and progress the craft with new products.
What about YOU?
Could YOU use a SPLASH of inspiration in YOUR sewing room?
Do YOU still have your first OLFA rotary cutter and mat?
What’s YOUR favorite size rotary cutter?
Do YOU prefer the straight or deluxe handle?
We’d LOVE to hear!
Happy Cutting and Stitching!
