Design Wall 54in White

The flannel is a high quality, 100% cotton, preshrunk flannel that has been measured and sewn to fit the frame.

FEATURED IN Quilts & More magazine.
What makes these different? Flexibility.
These 10″ tiles are completely flexible to make the size and shape you want, PLUS it breaks down for easy storage.
Pressing a long binding to your quilt? line them up in a row to make a long ironing surface.
Pressing large blocks? Put four together to make a 20″ by 20″ mat perfect for pressing large blocks.
Have a specific size table for pressing? Get the combination you need specific to your workspace. Grab one and put it next to your sewing machine while piecing.Travel smart. Take one or take them all, but them fit nicely in a small box or carry-on for your next sewing adventure. You can even combine tiles with your quilting and sewing friends to make a huge pressing mat at your quilt guild meetings or classes.
Create a design wall. Another great trick? put the mats on a wall to make an amazing design wall or spray basting surface. Simply use heavy duty 3M tape to hang them. Fabric will “stick” to them or you can easily pin into the surface.
Why is wool so great? Because wool has natural fire resistant properties- it won’t melt, it won’t burn and it retains heat well. Because it is heat resistant it pushes the heat back into your item. That’s why we say it “irons both sides at the same time”. The result is very flat quilt blocks and seams. It holds heat and steam like a brick oven The heat goes all the way through the fibers. It’s not necessary to use steam.
You usually don’t need to use starch, but if you do, the wool pressing mat is felted so it can be easily cleaned by running under cool water and letting it dry. It creates a nice, flat stable surface The mats are ½” thick and a tightly packed 100% felted wool. This allows to have a nice stable flat surface to iron on. Your items stay put, no sliding It does ‘grab’ your blocks and patches as you press—a really big help when you’re pressing blocks into submission. You can line up an edge of your block with your fingers and give a bit of a tug as you pull it square while pressing. Your items won’t slip like they do on a traditional ironing board and it does all this without pinning. No distortion will happen to your blocks as they stay in place while pressing. You can pin into the mat though if you need to hold your item down for whatever reason.- Made of: Wool

Wool Pressing Mat – 17in x 17in x 1/2in Thick
$39.99Press any pieced or embroidered block with ease. The density of this high-quality 100% felted wool mat localizes heat to the seams and stitches, effectively pressing both sides at once. An added bonus? The texture of the wool stops fabrics from shifting so there is no distortion when pressing. Tips and Tricks For best results, use a dry iron when pressing. When pressing an embroidered block, iron on the wrong side. The wool mat will cushion the stitches and retain the texture of the embroidery design. If the mat feels damp after use, hang to air-dry before storing. Wash the mat occasionally by rinsing it in cold water and hang the mat until dry. If you choose to use starch, wait to press the fabric until it is completely dry. . Starch build-up can scorch the mat if not cleaned properly. Recommended surfaces for the wool mat include Formica, Corian, stone, and metal (an ironing board). Wood and painted surfaces should be avoided. Never place the mat on a rotary cutting mat when pressing. The heat could warp the cutting mat.

Tips and Tricks
The pressing mat can be used with a dry iron on any surface. If using steam, place the mat on a protected surface since moisture does go through the mat and can harm the surface below. Never place the mat on a rotary cutting mat when pressing. The heat could warp the cutting mat. If mat feels damp after use, hang to air-dry before storing. Wash the mat occasionally by rinsing it in cold water and hanging the mat until dry – especially if using a spray starch. Safe surfaces include Formica, Corian, stone, and metal (an ironing board).
