Does anyone use this to cut fabric?

Yes, it won't work,for fabric this rotary blade would need to cut on a solid surface and it does not.

I've only used it for quilting and it will cut through several thicknesses of cotton fabric. I just tried it on naugahyde ....not exactly heavy duty leather, but it cut right through it.

Yes, its perfect for both fabric and paper. You might need to get a smaller ruler if youll be cutting very small pieces.

Yes, it would be very easy to use. Just put your template and fabric onto the mat, cut 1 or 2 sides of the template, and then turn the mat to cut the remaining sides. Much easier than moving the fabric to cut.

I think these scissors are great for cutting fabric, the blades are really sharp and it creates a straight line with ease. However, for cutting small things such as tiny curves and whatnot, I'm not sure you'd have the control as much with these as opposed to other scissors. Since there isn't a loop to grasp, I'm not sure how they would handle scrapbooking jobs. I suppose it would take some getting used to. If it were me, I think I'd prefer different scissors for that. But I LOVE these for sewing projects! I hope this isn't discouraging, and perhaps other people will disagree with me. Just my thoughts! On another note, they way be better for arthritic hands if she suffers from that! It might be worth a try.

Yes I've cut felt, fleece, flannel, minky and a ton of regular cotton. Love this cutter!

It's pretty easy to use with fabrics. The main thing is getting it adhered well to the cutting sheet and adjusting the pressure of the cutting blade. They have a extra sticky backing which I bought, but I find the regular adhesive sheet that came with it works well. The extra sticky sheet was too sticky and distorted my light weight fabrics when I tried to pull them off. I use light cottons for appliqu work and it works well cutting easily and accurately. There are good guidelines in the instructions for cutting different items such as different weights of paper and fabrics. Expensive product but I use it often and would definitely buy it again.

This is designed for cutting vinyl sheets. Are you referring to cutting a pattern to put on fabric to cut with scissors? If so I would say yes, but note the size limitation with this cutter.

They are quite sharp, so I think they would work for thinner fabrics. I know they could cut through a standard thickness wool felt, but fleece might be too thick. They are definitely not as sharp as sewing scissors.

In my opinion, this would not be heavy duty enough to cut thin wood. Of course, I only use this cutter on fabric. It would need to be tested.

I have not tried this but I would say no. The die is thin and is not deep enough to cut through so many pieces of fabric.

I have did not had a lot of success with it. I use heavier fabrics such as burlap, canvas & terry cloth. Have not used on lighter fabrics so not real sure of results on that type of fabric. I resorted to slowing down & keeping my scissors sharp!

Yes, it will cut fabrics as well as paper. I have used it for fabric leaves & flowers for a number of projects.

I use the cutter to cut hard packing plastic, folded newspaper leather but have not tried on cotton. I love my cutter.

I bought mine to cut synthetic fabric but you can purchase 2 pin wood burning or soldering tips for this type gun. I have a soldering iron and I would not recommend this gun for soldering. It is too bulky for that kind of work.

Hi, The pressure you apply may be the problem. I do not go fast, slow and heavy handed does the trick. I use mine for fleece fabric and only use the cutter with one layer. If I was using a fabric such as cotton, I know it would go through 2 layers. Hope this helps. Joannie �

yes. it's just like a self adhesive fabric, that can be cut with scissors. but in my experience it was a waste of money.it did not work.
