Fiskars 24" x 36" Folding Self-Healing Cutting Mat – Portable, Grid & Angle Guides

The Fiskars 24" x 36" Folding Self-Healing Cutting Mat is a large, portable cutting surface that folds in thirds for compact storage and travel while offering a durable, self-healing layer and clear measurement guides for precise fabric and craft cutting.

This folding cutting mat combines a generous workspace with a travel-conscious design. At 24 by 36 inches it accommodates full-width fabric cuts and larger paper or craft projects, yet it folds flat into thirds so you can tuck it behind a craft cabinet, in a car, or into a sewing kit. The mat’s self-healing surface resists visible cut marks and keeps blades from dulling prematurely, and an anti-slip backing helps keep the mat steady during work. Easy-to-read grids and 30°, 45° and 60° bias lines make measuring and angled cuts straightforward for quilting, sewing, and general crafting.

How does this mat make cutting large fabric widths easier?

With its 24" x 36" dimensions the mat is wide enough to support full-width fabric right off the bolt, reducing the need to move or refold material while cutting. The spacious surface gives you room for rulers and rotary cutters so you can work more efficiently and accurately.

• Full-width support for fabric bolts and large pattern pieces
• Clear square grid for straight cuts and alignment
• Large area to hold long rulers and templates without hangover

What features help keep cuts precise and blades lasting longer?

The mat’s self-healing top layer closes minor cut lines, maintaining a smooth surface that protects blade edges and preserves measurement accuracy. Printed grid lines and common angle guides simplify repeatable measurements and bias cutting for quilting shapes and fabric strips.

• Self-healing surface reduces visible grooves and wear
• 30°, 45° and 60° bias lines for angled and bias cuts
• Easy-to-read printed measurements for accurate repeat cuts

How portable and easy to store is the folding design?

The mat folds into thirds so it’s much easier to store upright or carry than a single-sheet mat of the same size. Durable hinges let the mat open and lie flat without catching, and a hang hole provides an additional storage option in a studio or classroom.

• Folds in thirds for compact storage and travel
• Durable hinges that allow the mat to lie flat for smooth cutting
• Hang hole for vertical storage in small spaces

Does the mat stay in place during active cutting?

A thick non-slip backing increases friction against tabletops to minimize shifting, so rulers and rotary cutters glide cleanly without the mat sliding away. The combination of a stable base and smooth cutting surface makes measured, repeatable cuts easier and safer.

• Non-slip underside reduces movement during cutting
• Stable base supports long, confident strokes with rotary cutters
• Consistent surface for improved control and repeatability
