Madam Sew 12-inch Locking Rotating Mat

What this tool is for

This rotating mat is useful if you alternate between trimming around small blocks and making a cut where you want the surface to stay still. Unlock the base to turn the piece, then lock it again before making a longer pass. The distinction matters if you have found free-turning mats awkward for straight cuts.
