i've used OLFA prodcuts for as long as i can remember. when i was young, my mom's OLFA rotary cutters were labeled 'for fabric only' and were strictly forbidden to play with (since there was a sharp blade involved). i can still remember the first time i was allowed to use one all by myself. i felt so special! now, i use OLFA's products nearly every day. they make crafting and sewing so much easier!
this year, OLFA is celebrating the 35th anniversary of the invention of the rotary cutter. to celebrate, they've been so kind to offer a giveaway for YOU!
today's giveaway consists of two of my all time favorite OLFA products. fist is a 6x8" self healing rotarty mat. it's the perfect size for craft projects and to take along with you as your travel. it's double-sided with yellow guidelines on one side, and solid on the opposite side for general cutting. rotary mats protect your work area and greatly extend the life of your rotary blades, plus with measurement guidelines they make precise cutting a cinch!
the second product is the 28mm rotary cutter. it's perfect for small-scale projects, miniatures and tight corners. the cutter is a rolling razor blade used to cut fabrics into shapes, strips and pieces for sewing, quilting and craft projects. the blade is made of high quality tungsten carbide tool steel for unparalleled sharpness and superior edge retention. let me tell you, it's sharp!
enter to win: 6x8" self healing rotary mat and 28mm rotary cutter by olfa.

I would love to win, because I’m still using just scissors to cut fabric.

I work for a company called Better Life Bags! We make and sell handbags (all of our seamstresses are 1st generation immigrant women who are the majority in our community) and I cut all of the fabric that comes through our shop. Most of our tools are made by Olfa, but it would be great to have some of my own for craft projects at home! You should check out our bags at http://www.betterlifebags.com!
I have never tried OLFA products, but would love to try. I am starting a few project for our new baby’s nursery (due in December), so the timing would be perfect. Thank you for a chance to win, Bonnie.
I have borrowed my moms Olfa products for years. I’m moving across the country next week and have to finally buy my own. Getting these for free would be amazing!! They really are the best cutters.
I pinned as well

I would like to try OLFA because it has a good reputation.
Just like you, my first experience was using my mom’s Olfa cutter. Was so excited when the large cutter came out!! Thanks for the give away!
