WHY Hemline Gold quilting tools are made to travel by Paul Leger October 4, 2024 written by Paul Leger October 4, 2024 1 This past week, I’ve relied on my trusty OLISO M3Pro Project Iron. Its size and practicality for times away from home are perfect. Today’s post is all about the HEMLINE GOLD Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat (30cm x 24cm) and its wonderful, multiple uses. A Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat The Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat has four uses. First, the cover doubles as a padded ironing surface. In its folded state, the ironing surface is 12” x 9½” (30cm x 24cm). When open, it’s a generous 12” x 16 ½” (30cm x 42cm). The Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat’s ironing surface. The inside cover contains a small cutting mat measuring 11” x 8”. This size is perfect for cutting many needed shapes and sizes of fabric. A Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in1 Multi-Mat has a cutting mat on one inside cover. The other side of the inside cover has a double purpose. First, the nonslip fabric can be used as a mini design wall. The other inside cover of a Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat is a mini design space. The second purpose of the back inside cover is hidden. There is a fine sheet of sandpaper underneath the nonslip fabric. Why a sandpaper sheet, you ask? I love using this sheet of sandpaper when I need to draw lines, and I don’t want the fabric to move. For instance, when I draw a diagonal line on a piece of fabric that’s not on sandpaper, the fabric can and probably will move. Placing the fabric on the fine sandpaper will prevent the fabric from shifting. A Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat back cover also has a sheet of fine sandpaper I love that I can draw a perfectly crisp line from corner to corner. The sandpaper on the Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat stops the fabric from sliding when marking lines. So, as you see, the Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat can be used in 4 ways: 1. An ironing pad 2. A cutting mat 3. A design pad 4. An anti-slip sandpaper sheet I have a fifth use for the Multi-Mat. I can carry patterns or papers inside when it’s folded for travel! The Hemline Gold Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat can also double as a folder for patterns and papers. The HEMLINE GOLD Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat is, indeed, a useful quilting tool, and it fits perfectly in the HEMLINE GOLD Multi-Use Craft Bag. Be sure to get both and include all the other Hemline Gold tools. The Hemline Gold Multi-Use Craft Bag, 4-in-1 Multi-Mat, sewing kit, retractable tape measure, and a package of 30 Quilters clips This week’s project, a fast strip quilt with an added fun element, was easy to make using a selection of practical quilting tools. The HEMLINE GOLD Multi-Use Craft Bag (28.5cm x 36.5cm x 17.8cm), HEMLINE GOLD Quilters 4-in-1 Multi-Mat (30cm x 24cm), and OLISO M3Pro Project Iron—Coral are just a few of my favourites for travel and at home.

After moving to Ottawa in 1996, I joined my first guild. I took more courses and began to buy quilting books and lots of fabrics. Quilting has become my passion. I have made over 150 more quilts since then, and have never looked back. I now share my knowledge of quilting by teaching and doing presentations, and blogging! previous post Creating an applique placemat in the DESIGNER Regal Hoop! next post What to know about edge-to-edge quilting with the HV DESIGNER EPIC 3 YOU MAY ALSO LIKE...
