Peeling Off the Material (Lightweight Fabric for
Quilt Piecing)
Follow the steps in adjusting the blade extension
(page 18), installing the blade holder (page 19)
and trial cutting (page 19) to set up your machine.
After cutting the material, use a spatula to slowly
peel off just the fabric. Try not to peel off the
support sheet.
a Fabric cut out
b Support sheet remaining on mat
Note
The support sheet may be unintentionally
peeled off while you are removing the fabric
from the mat under the following conditions:
- The adhesive between the mat and support
sheet is becoming weak after repeated uses.
- The support sheet tends to be strongly
attached to a certain types of fabrics.
In this case, use the included spatula to hold
the support sheet on the mat and remove the
fabric using your hand.
After cutting, carefully remove any fibers
remaining on the support sheet.
When attaching fabric with an iron-on sheet
attached or paper to the mat, cleanly peel off
the support sheet from the mat, or attach the
material to a different standard mat without a
support sheet attached.
Do not leave material attached to a mat with a
support sheet attached for a long period of
time; otherwise, the adhesive will permeate the
material.
Notice on Use of Support Sheet
When the sheet’s adhesive strength decreases
or fabric becomes twisted while being cut,
replace the sheet with a new one.
When peeling the sheet off the mat or replacing
the sheet, use the spatula to carefully remove
the old sheet.
Store the mat in between uses with the
protective sheet affixed to the support sheet.
If a mat with a support sheet attached is not to
be used for a certain length of time, peel the
support sheet off the mat and affix the
protective sheet on the adhesive side of the mat
before storing it.
Do not reuse a support sheet that has been
attached to the mat.
Attach a stabilizer to fabric when not using a
support sheet for cutting.
Store the support sheet at room temperature
and in a location not exposed to high
temperatures, high humidity or direct sunlight.
Do not bend the support sheet to store it.
4 Lightweight Fabric for Any Use Other
Than Quilt Piecing
a Standard cut blade
b Standard cut blade holder (turquoise)
c Standard mat (turquoise and purple)
d Iron-on fabric appliqué contact sheet (white
backing)
Attaching the Material (Lightweight Fabric for
Any Use Other Than Quilt Piecing)
Iron the specially designed contact sheet to the
back of fabrics for any use other than quilt
piecing, and then attach them to the standard
mat.
The double-faced adhesive type of the iron-on
fabric appliqué contact sheet reinforces the fabric
and enables any pattern to be cut easily,
including appliqués.
The sheet cannot be removed once it has been
attached to the back of fabrics. For quilt piecing,
use the high-tack adhesive fabric support sheet
and avoid using the iron-on fabric appliqué
contact sheet.
Note
The contact sheet may not adhere to a fabric
surface that is so rough that the two surfaces
cannot be heat-set to adhere to each other.
