Precision Quilting Tools 13.5" x 13.5" Wool Ironing Mat for Quilting - 100% New Zealand Wool Pressing Pad, Ironing Station Which Retains Heat - Great for Quilting and Sewing Notions

I've had one of these wool ironing pads for several years and love it. This new one was added to a small pressing area next to my embroidery machine. It is perfect with a tinyIron . Good price too!

I ordered it, came right on time but I wished I had ordered a little bigger but that size was not available but it is perfect for pressing small pieces for my quilting!

Expectations exceeded in the positive.I was expecting a slight residual smell as it’s been stated by others, it Dosesn’t! My quilting squares are looking better pressed. A must buy.

This is a game changer!! WAY better than having an ironing board taking up space! If you don’t have one you need to get one! High quality and very convenient.

Very nice pressing mat for my quilting. I trimmed it to fit in a custom pressing table beside my sewing table. I covered it with fabric that has a grid on it so that it is easier to press my quilt squares. The wool is clean and did not have a strong odor like a different mat I purchased.

I love the wool ironing pads. I’m a quilter and deal with small (sometimes really tiny) pieces of fabric that need to be pressed quickly. Hardly worth getting out the ginormous ironing board and iron. So imagine my surprise when I found these wool ironing pads. They are the perfect size for small quick jobs. I purchased my first one about 3 years ago, it’s 13” x 18”, and 3/4” thick. I used it constantly. So much so that decided I need a new one. So I purchased this one. However, it’s not as durable as my old one or as dense. It measures 13.5” x 17” and 1/2 thick. Plus you can barely stick a straight pin into the old one because it’s so dense. Whereas a straight pin sticks in easily. I like the new one, but since I use my desk to place the pad on, I’m uneasy about using the new one by itself. I don’t think it’s thick or dense enough to use alone so I place it on top of the old one when I need to iron something, then under the old one to keep it from getting worn like the old one.Overall, I’m ok with the new one. But you might want to consider using 2 just to make sure the heat of the iron will not penetrate through to the surface you’re using. Just a word to users, in case you don’t already know, do NOT use your self-healing cutting board under the ironing pad. The heat from your iron will absolutely damage your cutting board and cannot be repaired.I recommend this wool pad, but consider buying 2 for the extra protection.

It turns out I don't hate ironing; I just hate my ironing board. Until a month ago, I'd never heard of a wool pressing mat, but if I had, I would have considered it an absolutely necessary sewing tool. It sits at the end of my cutting table, with a low profile, and when I need to iron I simply walk to the end of the table and press my fabric. I bought the larger one because I wanted to be able to press dress pieces, and I'm glad I did. I haven't had any issues with sticking (I saw one review mention that and it made me nervous, but I don't even feel a hint of that), and while there is a slight smell when used for a long period, it's barely noticeable and not at all unpleasant. That being said, this thing could smell like a barn and I'd still prefer it to my clanky, horrible, giant ironing board.I do wish it had some kind of grippers on the bottom because it does slide around my slick wood table a bit, but it's not a big deal and this way it's usable on both sides and there's nothing to melt. Other than that, the only thing I wish is that I'd known about this years ago.

Great

We’d worried about smell, melting, and thickness, but there’s no smell (we're not using steam), no melting, and it’s plenty thick. We weren’t which size to get, but since you can cut it we figured size doesn’t matter, and it turns out that we’re happy that we went bigger anyway. Best of all, pressing is easier now - faster and more convenient.

Love the size of this pressing mat. It fits perfectly on the utility cart I am using as an ironing board. Holds the heat nicely and has absolutely NO odor as I’ve seen some people complain about with their wool mats. Not the cheapest available but I think it’s probably better quality. Overall very pleased.

Love this pressing mat, it works great for pressing quilt and embroidery blocks, makes your seams lie flat and your embroidery doesn't get flattened from pressing. I love this mat for pressing my fabrics as well, wish my whole ironing surface was covered with these mats!

ich liebe diese Wollbügelmatte, grade für kleinere Nähobjekte super da wenn man nicht so viel Platz hat ist sie greifbereit und man muss nicht erst das Bügelbrett aufstellen. Das Bügelergebnis ist super kann ich nur weiter empfehlen.

As expected
