If you have ever wrestled a rotary cutter around a tight curve, you will know how much the blade itself matters. In this short video from Roxane Lessa, The Art Quilters Coach, she shows why a sharp titanium coated blade makes such a difference, especially for the small, curving cuts she relies on in her improvisational curved appliqué.
Here is why this one is worth watching:
- A blade that stays sharp. Titanium coated blades hold their edge beautifully, so you get clean, reliable cuts for much longer before it is time for a change.
- Made for small, curved cuts. Roxane shows how a keen titanium blade glides around tight curves, which is exactly what she leans on when she is piecing her free, curved appliqué shapes.
- More control and cleaner edges. A sharp blade means far less dragging and snagging as you cut, so your curves come out smooth and your fabric edges stay crisp and neat.
Tempted to make the switch? Have a peek at our rotary blades collection, where you will find titanium coated blades ready to keep your cuts sharp and smooth. We would love to help you get the cleanest cuts yet!
