Hi Everyone! Some of you may recognize me. I am Jane Stewart, one of Moda's proudest Sales Reps.
I am excited to tell you about this wonderful new ruler that I just love.
It is called the Sew Easy Ruler Cutter.
The Sew Easy Ruler Cutter is a combination of a rotary cutter attached to a ruler-
very safe and easy to use- even for young beginners (and klutzes like me!)
+036.jpg)
People with arthritis or carpal tunnel syndrome will love how you just place your palm
flat down on top of the red blade cover and just push it across.
It easily cuts strips and borders accurately, without hand fatigue or the chance
for a regular rotary cutter to slip (requiring a trip to the emergency room for stitches).
At 27.5" long it quickly cuts across the whole width of the fabric.
Also, because the ruler has clear markings- including angles- cutting bias strips is a snap!
The cutter uses a standard 45mm blade- very easy to change out-
and will increase the life of your mat because the blade depth is consistent.
Here is a quick demo of how the Ruler Cutter works...
So many of my quilt shops love this ruler/cutter combo and now carry it in their stores,
so make sure to check your local quilt shop to try it out!
I will be giving away one of these handy Sew Easy Ruler Cutters to one lucky winner! To enter please leave a comment telling me about your favorite iron and why you love it.
You will have until September 30th at midnight to comment. All winners will be randomly selected and announced on Moda... The Cutting Table Blog on October 2nd.
Make sure to visit the blog every day for the opportunity to win each giveaway!
My favorite iron was one my mother had when I was growing up, and the reason that I loved it was because it was reliable. I did all the family ironing (this was in the days before permanent press fabric), so I used that iron a lot. It did not drip or spit or turn off while I was using it, all problems I've had with each of the irons I've used in the past 5 or 10 years. I will be very interested to read comments from others to see what they recommend.
ReplyDeleteI've cut myself twice in the last month using my rotary cutter. This would be a life saver (or should I say hand saver)! Thanks for the chance!
ReplyDeleteI don't really have a favourite iron, all of the ones I have had have only lasted a couple of years. I do like them to have lots of steam though. Thank you for a super giveaway.

I have always had Black & Decker irons - usually they are demised by knocking them on the floor too many times not because of a problem with the iron itself - and a Shark that I love!!
ReplyDeleteWoah this is perfect! I love that it is nice and long!! As for a fav iron - I just use whatever is in the house (husband buys the irons when we need a new one)!!!
ReplyDeleteNow that is an impressive ruler! Not your grandma's yard stick!
ReplyDeleteI have a Black and Decker that has performed well for me.
ReplyDeleteLoved my Mother-in-law's old dry iron! Was heavy and would starch like a dream! It got lost in a move. Keep looking at thrifts and vintage shops for one like it. Now this cutting system does look like one that maybe I could use with no pain!
ReplyDeleteLola
I love the Rowenta Steam Station---lots of wonderful steam and I get a really good finish! That ruler looks great!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is the one I have been using for years. It's a Black and Decker Extra Long Cord model. The extra long cord is great to help me reach when pressing large quilt tops.
ReplyDeleteI like the safety features of this ruler!
I don't really have a favourite iron, as a general rule, I don't iron! Until I starting sewing properly last year that is and now I understand why it's an absolute essential part of my creations (bedding and nightwear for kids!) I do have a craft iron though but I've not even got it out of the packaging yet. So for me, any iron is my favourite but it's got to have ironing water in it and it's got to be hot!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron for my quilting is my dry iron. No spitting no water. I just starch stray or just spray plain water and it does its job.
ReplyDeleteI use a Rowenta Steam Generator. Awesome iron that takes the wrinkles out of even the toughest batiks.
ReplyDeleteI just purchased a DeLonghi steam generator. I love how quickly I can get the wrinkles,out of my fabrics now.
ReplyDeleteI love the Rowenta steam iron because it doesn't scorch and gets the wrinkles out of my fabric quickly!
ReplyDeleteBlack and Decker extra long cord. Over the years I have had to admit: I tend to leave water in their basins that rust and then I have to throw it away and get a new iron, so I do not get too attached...
ReplyDeletebut I do love an iron with lots of steam & a LONG cord.
I would love to have an Oliso. It's my dream iron. But for now I'm limping along with my cheapie Black and Decker. We have a love/hate relationship.
ReplyDeleteI've been through 2 Rowenta irons, that end up spitting and dripping within a year or so. So I'm not a fan of Rowenta. I'll check back on your replies for a recommendation. The cutter looks like something I could use without fear of cutting myself. I have lymphedema, in my left arm and hand, so I can't have any breaks in the skin without a problem. Thanks for showing us this I've never seen it before.
ReplyDeleteI have a Sunbeam I got on clearance that works like a dream - just the right weight and plenty of steam when I need it. Love the new cutter/ruler. Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteWow - what a ruler! I definitely need one of those!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is one with LOTS of steam power (I smock and need that for blocking). I have had several Rowentas and loved all the steam they provided. My husband got me an Oreck iron for Christmas a couple of years ago that is really neat for ironing large pieces of fabric. You can flip a switch and the power cord comes off - no creasing your fabric with the cord! Pretty neat.
Cool ruler. I have 2 Rowentas. A big one with the giant water tank and a smaller one I use by my sewing machine. They are fabulous and produce the best steam
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm using a vintage West Bend cordless iron. I LOVE it! I've always wanted a cordless, but didn't want to cough up for a really nice new one. My dad came through with one of my grandmas old ones, and it works like a champ.
ReplyDeleteFavorite iron... Well, I have only ever owned two and they weren't for clothes, just fabric - lol! And the one I have now I really love. It was the cheapest one I could find but it's lightweight and it produces lots of steam! Something I love for my wools! Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteI have two irons, a Rowenta and a Reliable. Each has their own benefits and are used accordingly. My favorite iron of all time was the old one I used to iron my dad's shirt with back in the 50s and early 60s. I learned to appreciate a well ironed shirt and a spritzer made from a pop bottle to fix mistakes.
ReplyDeleteRight now I have a Shark iron and I like it pretty well. Looking forward to other comments to see what other options are out there.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is my Rowenta travel iron. I love it because its small, lightweight, and doesn't have an automatic turn off.
ReplyDeleteI have four irons! Right now I'm using a Rowenta which is fine. But my very favorite is an old Betty Crocker iron that my mother bought in the 50s. It gets really hot and doesn't have auto shut off. Perfect for a quilter.
ReplyDeleteI just lost my iron. Just stpped working. My husband bought me a $18 sunbeam. (He loves a deal) I was secretly hoping for aa Isio or Rowenta. Darn, why didnt I go to the store. Please pick me for this great ruler. It would really help these old arthritic joints.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is my Rowenta and I love the steam. I would love to win this cutting system. It would certainly cut down on ER visits and partial amputation of left index finger. Thank you for the chance to win
ReplyDeleteRowenta iron which I have used this rand for a long time. Although I may break down and try the Iliso . Cutter looks great I need to find one for my Mom.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron would my current iron which is an over 12 year old Sunbeam. It's starting to show its age but still works. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteWow, what an amazing cutter! My favorite iron is T-fal Ultraglide Easycord Ceramic Soleplate Steam Iron that I bought at Kmart. It has tons of steam and glides smoothly because of the ceramic bottom. It's reasonably priced too at $39.99.
ReplyDeleteI have a Shark professional iron and I do love it. It's big but lightweight, it turns off and is on standby at all times and heats back up almost instantly. It has a long cord and it's nice to look at. I like everything about it, but for some reason, I want one of the new irons that raises itself up!
ReplyDeleteMy son bought me the orange iron from Reliable (the V50) and it's the best iron I've had. Gets nice and hot, plenty of steam, and auto shut off.
ReplyDeleteI like the Black & Decker with an automatic shutoff. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI haven't tried enough irons to have a favorite... Just any old iron works for me!
ReplyDeleteMy dream iron is Oliso but too much $$.
ReplyDeleteSo I struggle along with a Black & Decker Pro Express that constantly drips water.
I guess my favorite iron would be the one that doesn't let me down by not working when I need it.
ReplyDeleteI love my new Oliso! I am loving that this ruler/cutter is long! Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI have an Oliso iron and it is great - great steam, great heat, and eventually shuts off when I forget about it!
ReplyDeleteThe ruler is fantastic. It is like my mat cutter in the way it cuts. Great idea.
Funny that you should ask about irons as I got a new one last week - a cordless Panasonic. It's so nice to move around and not have to drag the cord behind! Thanks for the give away!
ReplyDeleteI have a Rowenta iron and love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
I have two Rowenta irons and am happy with both. Dependable. Years old. Dragged from pillar to post and never balk. So I guess they are the favorites.
ReplyDeleteI am still looking for the perfect
ReplyDeleteiron, have yet to find one that is
light weight enough, to hold a good
press, and gets hot enough to get
the wrinkles out. Will be watching
the blog posts. Thanks for the
chance to win, looks like a great
system for cutting, especially if
you have hand and wrist issues.
I have yet to find my favorite iron. Someone help me please!
ReplyDeleteI just have a Black and Decker generic old iron. It works, but my daughter has a Rowenta that is pretty nice. I love this new cutter you are showing us today. It sure would be great on these old wrists. :) Thanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI had a Rowenta that lasted for years, despite having jumped from the ironing board many times. No leaking, no rust, and good heat. Sadly, my current Rowenta is nothing like it.
ReplyDeleteI have two Rowenta irons, one full size, one travel size. They are working fine, but I don't believe I've found my ideal iron yet. I love this ruler/ cutter system. Thanks for the chance to win one.
ReplyDeletei have so many over the years expensive, name brands and cheaper ones i have had a bernina that cam e as a combo about 15 yrs ago or so for 900.00 and i love it for not only quilting or sewing but for ironing clothes. thanks for the chance to win
ReplyDeleteI am still looking for a favorite iron so I am going to have to read all the comments! There are so many irons to choose from that it can become overwhelming.....and expensive to find the right one. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI really like the oliso, but I use a black and decker with a really long cord and a loud auto off. This looks like a tool I could really use since I do have arthritis.
ReplyDeleteI have been using a Black and Decker iron for the last 10 years. I am waiting for it to die as an excuse to get a more fancy iron, but it seems to be a work horse. The only thing about it the bothers me a bit is the auto shut off that always turns off right when I really need it. It seems to cool off really fast and also heats up fast. I am not nice to this iron and fill it up with tap water, but it doesn't faze this guy at all it keeps producing wonderful steam. I am actually wearing off the teflon coating on the bottom.
ReplyDeleteReading all the comments to find out which irons are favorites. Mine is just an off-brand from the local discount store as until I started quilting a couple months ago I never really used an iron (I mean never!)
ReplyDeleteWould love to win this ruler. I tend to either veer away from the ruler with my rotary cutter, or stay too close and shave bits of the ruler off!
I'm currently using the "Shark" (by Black & Decker, I believe) after going through Rowentas and Berninas that ALWAYS leaked. Love this iron although I've been flirting with the Oliso ... but don't want to "jinx" myself!! Linda
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea - I haven't seen one before!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite iron was a Phillips which had an extra long flex - so useful!
I have a Black & Decker Digital Advantage, chosen because of the good reviews on Amazon, and it has really worked nicely for me. It has lots of steam and the temperatures are just right.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is a Rowenta that I picked up at a yard sale about 2 years ago. Actually, I have another one a little heavier that I also picked up at a yard sale and I love that one, too! So far no leaks and I love the amount of steam it produces.
ReplyDeleteThis cutter looks really cool. Thanks for the opportunity to win one!
My favorite is an antique travel iron that came from my Aunt.
ReplyDeleteI have a great Black and Decker but would love to have a Rowenta.
ReplyDeleteI love my Rowenta travel iron. It is great for fusible appliqué as it is nice and hot! It is also the best for taking to classes!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a favorite iron! I just like the one I use (currently a Rowenta) to be plenty hot! An automatic shut-off is a great feature, but I wish mine stayed on a little longer.
ReplyDeleteThe ruler/cutter looks like a great product---can't believe it has taken until now to be offered! Thanks for the giveaway chance!
I got a Rowenta for a wedding present that worked well but it disappeared (have no clue what happened to it) so we replaced it with a Shark which has also been working well.
ReplyDeleteI can honestly say I have yet to find one that I love. I have had a lot of them but somehow they just keep shorting out with the wiring in my house so I hesitate to invest in a good one. Until that day comes when I have custom built mansion and endless money for quilting I'm stuck with Walmart specials!
ReplyDeleteOh what a great tool!!! I have a Rowenta steam iron and it sure does take a beating from me with daily use :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a great product. It almost looks too easy! But it sure would come in handy when you have a large quilt to cut out! As for my iron: I have a little Shark travel iron that I use near my machine when quilting. It is only about 7" big, but it has steam, burst of steam, and most of all, it does not spit.
ReplyDeleteI love my Rowenta Steam Pro. It gets super hot and makes great steam. I would love this ruler, looks like a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI really like the Rowena irons! I have a travel one and love it!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is the now discontinued Clover craft iron, because it's narrow enough to iron the parts I want and not the parts I don't... and it gets twice as hot as my full-size iron. I wish it had a stainless steel soleplate... but aside from that it's perfect!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron. Hmm. I can honestly say I have yet to have a favorite. None of the ones I've used have impressed me. I'm still searching!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is a Rowenta.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is the cordless Panasonic (NI-WL600). I like it because it is compact, light weight, cordless, & heats enough to do the job but not scorch my fabric. I keep it on my sewing table right next to my sewing machine. I press on a small handmade pressing pad an never have to leave my chair.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome tool. I have a Rowenta. Don't know that it's a favorite; it's just the only one I've owned and it works great.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is the cheapest, hottest one I can find. I have used them all from the elite to the dime store brand and I find the dime store works just as well.
ReplyDeleteThis ruler cutter is marvelous! I've had mine for about a month and recommend it to all my friends. Love Rowenta and Oliso both, it's not easy to get back into picking up a regular iron after the Oliso spoils me.
ReplyDeleteWe had a Black and Decker that I really liked but it dies so we are in the market for a new one. thank you for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteLet me know what you find out about favorite irons. Mine seem almost disposable as they don't seem to last too long. I have had pricier ones and cheap ones and I still don't have a favorite. Love the ruler/ cutter.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is a small dry iron I've had for years. I can spritz my fabrics if I need steam or dampness but this iron is perfect when I don't because it doesn't have the dimples that leave those big skips when pressing. When I pre-make berries or grapes for applique, I can press them and not worry about where on the sole plate they end up. I really like this little iron.
ReplyDeleteI love my Laurastar for ironing. In my sewing area, I have an Oliso Pro. The iTouch feature is great!
ReplyDeleteI love this ruler, so great for us with various hand issues. I currently use an old Rowenta iron, but it is on it's last legs.
ReplyDeleteI think it is so weird that you ask about our favorite iron because I just picked a new one and am saving my pennies to purchase it! Right now I have some basic iron that I don't love but am saving to purchase a Panasonic NI-L705R Cordless Iron. I have a few friends that own it and they rave about the great stream and no drips or spitting.
ReplyDeleteMy iron is a cheap Black and Decker one from Walmart. It does the job. I would love the new Oso Iron but it is not in the budget. I used one at a class in Joanns and loved it. Love this ruler. I had already seen a video on it and was amazed on what it does. Thank you for sharing and the chance to win one.
ReplyDeleteI don't really have a favorite iron, I've tried them all I think and most have never lasted like they should. Currently have a T-Fal that's about 3 mos old, so we'll see!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen this new cutting system but it would be wonderful for new - and old - quilters alike! My daughter is into modern quilting but she still fears the rotary cutter. This would be great for her to use! Thanks for the chance to win!
I don't have a favorite iron. I have one that I picked up from Target for $20. It is nothing special, but it does the job for the most part. One day I would like something more fancy and customized more towards quilting.
ReplyDeleteRight now my iron is a Rowenta and it's pretty good except that I'm not good at cleaning the steam function and sometimes it spits out dirty water. Not a good thing. But I think it's my fault, as I said.
ReplyDeleteI have a Rowenta iron but sometimes prefer my lighter Norelco. It heats up fast.
ReplyDeleteThat ruler reminds me of a giant paper cutter.
Right now my Black and Decker is my favorite. I like the weight of it and it reaches a good heat! Thanks for a chance at winning!
ReplyDeleteI can't say that I have ever had a favorite iron. I always buy the cheapest iron I can find with a non-stick coating. I seem to drop my irons fairly often and don't want to ruin an expensive one. Thanks for a chance on your wonderful giveaway. I would really like to try this ruler.
ReplyDeleteI love the Black and Decker with an extra long cord. Does exactly what I need it to.
ReplyDeleteI haven't found a favorite iron yet, but I really want a cordless one because I'm always stepping on the cord and it keeps getting in my way.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is the little itty bitty one with the triangle front.... so easy to smoothing out all
ReplyDeletethe creases I didn't notice until too late.
I have to have this cutter/ruler. Have never ever been able to cut anything straight no matter what I have done, or how many times someone has shown me.
I love my Panasonic Cordelss Iron ~
ReplyDeletea light turquoise in color ~ Love it so much because "it is cordless", what else can I say other than it very much serves it purpose and light weight also! Love it!
Thanks for the opportunity to win this "cutter/ruler"!
(senoraresources@msn.com
My husband got me a cordless Panasonic iron a couple of years ago for Christmas. I love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance at the giveaway. This ruler/cutter looks great!
Wow, that is an amazing ruler/cutter combo. With my arthritis that would be fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite little iron is a Black and Decker . I got this iron for my daughter when she left for college many years ago. It is just the right size to keep next to my sewing machine...perfect for paper piecing.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't have anything but a ROWENTA PROFESSIONAL. I had gone through many different irons until I decided that I was getting what I paid for. Even though some of these were quite pricey. Five years ago I bit the bullet and bought the best iron I have ever used. I have not complaints at all. It even took a hard fall to the floor without a hitch. You will need an upgraded extension card to carry the wattage needed. 1750W But then if you can get close enough to a 3 prong outlet you are good to go.
ReplyDeleteElleta
I'm still searching for a favorite iron but this ruler might soon be my favorite notion.
ReplyDeleteI'm ashamed to say I have been using the same ol' Sunbeam iron for 30 years or so. I keep waiting for it to "break" so I can get me one of those fancy kind that jump up when you stop ironing. My old Sunbeam would have to be my favorite, since I don't remember the other one I had (pre 30 years ago).
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is my travel iron! It is the perfect size to put by my table for both piecing and applique.
ReplyDeleteMy Favorite Iron is a Reliable that I bought to replace my Rowenta that caught fire. I love the weight of it and it was affordable.
ReplyDeleteReally? I have to name my favorite iron?? I hate irons so I would never have a favorite one. (hate ironing and or pressing too) Let's see I have a black one and a Blue one. that I use all the time. My favorite is my black one. (but it shocks me so I use the blue one)
ReplyDeleteI don't have a lot of experience with irons but I use a Rowenta. It heats up quickly and if I forget to turn it off, it will do so itself. It isn't too heavy. There may be better ones out there but I like my Rowenta.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is the one I have. Some day a new iron will make it to the top of my "I want" list, but until then I will use what I have!
ReplyDeleteI recently purchased a Reliable Sensor Velocity 200 and so far I love it. Lots of steam, no spitting or dripping.
ReplyDeleteI love my little mini Iron I purchased. Its great for taking to quilt classes. Great for pressing seams beside my sewing machine. I do hope I win this cutter, because I have Arthritis and I also broke my right hand as well. Using a rotary cutter is a little difficult for me. thanks for the chance.
ReplyDeleteWendy
I have an old school super heavy iron. I love it because it presses things automatically with little effort on my part.
ReplyDeletelapaceksorchard at gmail dot com
i have a Rowenta focus, wonderful iron, i tried multiple brands over the last couple of years, lots of defects and problem, not the Rowenta, its like the Mercedes of irons, lol
ReplyDeleteOh...this looks awesome...I need one!!! My favorite iron is my Black and Decker. It gives off so much steam and it isn't too heavy. I don't remember the model # but it was rated the highest in all reviews I found. It never leaks like the Rowenta!
ReplyDeleteHave a Shark atm but I do love the one that rises .. don't know the name. Not been very successful with good irons over the last few years. I love that new ruler, though. I have arthritis and severe tendonitis so cutting is so painful for me. Love to quilt so suffer through it! LOL Great giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI'm currently using a Rowenta and it performs well on clothes and such but I'm looking for a light weight iron that I can use beside my sewing machine - especially for when I do paper piecing! If anyone has any suggestions, send them my way!
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize I liked my iron so much, until I thought it was broken (i just needed to clean out all the minerals to get it steaming again). I used my back up iron a cheap black and decker, and the holes on the bottom of it would move the fabric around so my quilt picecs weren't flat anymore. The one I like is my Rowenta 1600.
ReplyDeleteI have a Rowenta with 400 steam holes. love it. But I have been eyeing the Oliso.
ReplyDeletethanks for the giveaway... what a great cutting tool
I have yet to find that perfect iron, seems like every iron I try will leak, spit, or perform some other odd talent, and why must irons be so heavy? Still searching.
ReplyDeleteI'm actually still looking for the perfect iron! I've used Black and Decker irons in the past, which have been fine. Right now I'm using a Shark. I've heard good and bad things about Rowenta irons so I haven't tried those yet.
ReplyDeleteThanks for this wonderful giveaway!
What a great innovation! I would love to use one of these cutting tools! Thank you for the demo and sweet giveaway chance!
ReplyDeleteI am using an old heavy all metal GE iron that I recently got at a garage sale & I like it so much better than other light weight irons I have used. This ruler/cutter is such a great idea & I can't wait to try it.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron was a cordless one that I had for years, can't remember the brand, but it died and I could haven't been able to find one I like as well. I keep looking at irons, but I can't decide which one to try. I would love to try this new ruler!!!
ReplyDeleteI have a Rowenta but I want to get an Oliso Smartiron. I am lured by the yellow color and the little feet that automatically raises the iron off the fabric.
ReplyDeleteAs I sit here typing with my numb hand, I know I need this, lol. I do not have a favorite iron, I buy cheap ones, ruin them and go on to another.
ReplyDeleteDebbie
I don't have a perfect iron--nor do I know which one would be the best. One of these days I will get one that is better. Awesome ruler!
ReplyDeleteHeather P.
My current and previous two irons are/were Rowentas--and I've hated all of them. :( My next one will be an Oliso.
ReplyDeleteI have an inexpensive T-fal iron. With the hard water we have here in middle Georgia, I don't want to spend too much on an iron that will only last a couple of years. That said, this one is going on four years and working great. I like it't light weight and non-stick surface plate.
ReplyDeleteThis would be great. I have had spinal surgery and am limited to amount of pressure I can use when cutting.
ReplyDeleteI habe an iron from Bosch and love it.
ReplyDeleteOur iron is a relatively cheap brand that my husband bought some time before I met him over eleven years ago. It works as well today as it did the first time I used it and I'll quite happily use it till the day it stops working at which time I'll replace it with something similar.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is my Rowenta! I love the hefty feel and I love the fact that it stays on until I turn it off...perfect for long sessions of piecing!
ReplyDeleteSo many years I knocked my irons off my ironing board because the sat upright. Well now I have an Oliso iron and love it for the fact it doesn't fall off the board and because its a great iron for my granddaughters to use. Thank you for the chance to win this ruler cutter. It would save my wrists at 65. jlblvn at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteWell, I only have one iron, so I guess that makes it my favourite! I don't even know what brand it is off the top of my head. But I do also have an antique one that you heat on top of the wood stove...I use it when we're camping and I absolutely have to press something :)
ReplyDeleteI love my Rowenta iron. Thanks for the opportunity to win!
ReplyDeleteI have a rowenta but is it my favorite? I don't think so and need to look at other irons so i will be looking at the comments.
ReplyDeleteI have an older Sunbeam steam iron that is my favorite right now till it dies. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteCarol L
Nebr
My favorite iron is my mom's old faithful--heavy metal for sure. I wish I still had it! I will never forget the cord, which was something I used to play with, making patterns and designs as it lay on the ground underneath the ironing board.
ReplyDeleteI dont' have a favorite iron, as long as it gets hot and turns itself off, i'm good. love this ruler though. hope i win it. :)
ReplyDeleteNot sure if i like the ruler or the cutter better.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite and best iron is a professional Sussman with a gravity feed. It's 30 yrs. old, and I've had it re-conditioned a few times, but it has held up over time.
ReplyDeleteI love my Rowenta iron because it has some weight to it which I find helpful when pressing seams flat. Would love to win the new ruler/cutting system!
ReplyDeleteI've been using the Eurosteam and luvin' it so far! Thanks for the giveaway ... would luv to win a copy of the book.
ReplyDeleteI use a Rowenta Steam generator and I love it! Even if it starts to leak, I would still love it because it doesn't have an auto turnoff.
ReplyDeleteOk I have want to comment for a chance to win but have to say mine isn't an iron but any ironing board. It is the one that I still use today that I learned to iron pillowcases on as a young girl. The wood yes wood is slightly curved on and the legs are taped together but I love it so. Thanks for the chance to win.
ReplyDeleteI have a heavy Rowenta and I like it a lot. Mine has never leaked. I remember those 'good old irons'...being the oldest girl, I had to iron 15 school blouses and 6 pleated skirts per week...it was HOT work! I'm thankful for the newer irons and enjoy my Rowenta. As for the Sew Easy cutter, I would LOVE it. I am a complete klutz at rotary cutting. I have wasted so much fabric with bad cutting it's not funny.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway!
I have a Sunbeam. The price is reasonable and it does what I need it to do and a bonus, my cat can't chew through the electrical cord. She has a bad habit of doing that when I'm not looking.
ReplyDeleteMy Rowenia titan plus has to be my favorite iron, I have had it for almost 20 years and it just keeps workin' away for me. Or maybe I never do a lot of ironing!
ReplyDeletethelady at hotmail.com
I won a Reliable Velocity from Fons & Porter & I absolutely LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteI have a T-Fal Ultraglide Easycord iron. Get really hot & puts out lots of steam if I need it. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteMy kids are really wanting to cut with me--this would be great! I haven't found a favorite iron yet. I'd sure like to though. I'm interested to see what people say.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is my little clover iron (it's heart shaped). I use it for applique and for quick touch ups next to my sewing machine. I don't have very good luck with regular irons -- they all leak and spit. But I hope someday to find the perfect one.
ReplyDeleteMy neighbors iron is fantastic! I don't know what it is though. But if it even gets near fabric it's like they are already ironed! Mine you have to press down, her's it just glides over the fabric!
ReplyDeleteMy old favorite was a Kenmore iron I bought from Sears...reliable and very affordable. But my new favorite is my yellow Oliso pro-smart iron I won from the Quilters March Madness Shop Hop this year. So cute when it pops up when you take your hands off it.
ReplyDeleteI have yet to find a favorite iron. I put up with my Rowenta, but I don't love it.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is my Rownta pro master. It steams like nobody's business!
ReplyDeleteI had a Rowenta for several years and it steamed beautifully. Recently purchased a new Rowenta which is a real pain---leaks and spits alot. Also the automatic turn-off is very annoying. Hope Santa brings me a new Oliso !
ReplyDeleteMy trusty old Taurus (a spanish brand, as I'm from Spain).
ReplyDeleteTerrific giveaway, thanks for the chance to win!!
I have an old iron which is heavy and hot! wonderful for dry ironing!
ReplyDeleteI have a Black and Decker steam iron that serves me very well. It has survived many a fall from the ironing board.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of this ruler. I have carpal tunnel in one hand, and a T brace with 10 screws in the other wrist! My favorite iron is the cheap Black and Decker brand. I've never had a problem with them leaking, they always heat up properly, and last forever. Thanks for the opportunity!
ReplyDeleteI use a Rowenta Professional without water. Ever since Ricky Tims said putting water in your iron will eventually make it leak, I've just used a spritzer bottle with water in it. Works just as well, and I've not had any leaking problems.
ReplyDeleteA Rowenta and I love it...and this is an awesome new tool!
ReplyDeleteI love my basic black and decker. It is hot and full of steam.
ReplyDeleteI just bought an Oliso iron. I think I am going to love it because of the legs that come down when you leave it setting flat, very handy. Much more expensive than any other iron I have ever had but so far I do like it.
ReplyDeleteI love my Reliant and my Rowenta travel iron!
ReplyDeleteMy iron is not fancy, it's a black and decker I bought at target 11 yrs ago for about $20. It puts out great steam and gives off good heat. Can't beat that right?! I absolutely love this new ruler!! Cannot wait to have one of my own! Thanks for a chance to win!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is a Black and Decker with a long cord. Second best is a Sunbeam. Least favorite is an expensive Rowenta-all it did was spit!
ReplyDeleteGreat ruler by the way. My favorite iron is no longer available. It was a travel iron from clover. I really miss it! Still looking for one (do not like the little red one)to replace it. My new favorite is the yellow Oliso. love it.
ReplyDeleteI have a Rowenta and it does the job. It's helpful to read all these posts as my iron is about 13 years old and might have to invest in a new one soon. My Rowenta does not have auto-off, which might be helpful when I have to buy one. This ruler looks interesting. Thanks for the chance to win!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite iron is my everyday iron, It changes colour when it gets heats up or down.
ReplyDeleteGotta get one of these...I don't have many shops near me but I will find one eventually!
ReplyDeleteI have a Imete Steam Generator with a long cord and a Philips when I don´t have many clothes to iron.Thanks for the chance!!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice informative demo video! I'm definitely interested! My favorite iron is currently a small black and decker travel iron that I take to quilt retreats. The "name brand" expensive travel irons I've bought were great but they prematurely bit the dust!
ReplyDeletethat cutter is awesome.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is a Rowenta. I have had it for 10 years and it stills works like new.
My favorite iron is the shark. It has a lot of steam and really presses the wrinkles out.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is a rowenta iron. What a great ruler it would make cutting straight lines a lot easier.
ReplyDeleteI guess I haven't had a favorite iron. I like any of them that don't drip and will shut of on their own. Great looking ruler. Great blog
ReplyDeleteI have only had one iron, a rowenta, and it does the job!
ReplyDeletei use my hair straightner! it's great for strips!

Really don't have favorite, just use what I have.
ReplyDeleteThe only iron I have is a Black & Decker so I guess that makes it my favorite. Could use this ruler as I have "shortened " my finger using a rotary cutter.
ReplyDeleteGreat video and thanks for the video.
I have a Rowenta that just quit working and have had to use my backup Black and Decker. I really miss my Rowenta and am on the lookout for a new good quality iron. That ruler/cutter system is great.
ReplyDeleteThis looks like such an amazing cutting tool. Since having my wrist surgery, rotary cutting has been limited. My favorite iron is my Rowenta. I've had it for about 15 years, and she still works like a dream. I don't put water in my irons, instead I use a spritzer with water to dampen my fabric.
ReplyDeleteI just recently did a post about my irons! My fave is an OLD Presto - it gets way hotter than my other, modern irons, and it doesn't shut off whenever I turn my back! Check out my comparison if interested http://redletterquilts.blogspot.com/2013/08/eeny-meeny-miny-moe-which-iron-do-i.html
ReplyDeleteI am drooling over the new cutter!!
I love my Rowenta! It has a lot of steam and ithe point is shaped to press small things really well.
ReplyDeleteI like my Rowenta! It drives me crazy that it has the auto shutoff but I have to weigh that against the great steam it produces. Used a Black and Decker at local quilt shop over the weekend and was not impressed with it.
ReplyDeleteWish my quilt shop would get one of these new rulers. As an arthritis sufferer this might get an A+++ from me.
I love my Rowenta Iron. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is my Clover mini iron. I use it a lot when I make applique pieces either with freezer paper or Templar templates.
ReplyDeleteAfter cutting myself several times with the rotary cutter, I am looking for a great option! This may be the thing. My fav iron was one I got in the 80s as a wedding present. Heavy, steam, turned off when you unplugged it. My new one leaks and most of the time it has turned itself off when I go to use it.
ReplyDeleteMy kids gave me a reconditioned Reliable iron last Christmas. It's wonderful!!! And so are they! Arthritis, carpal tunnel - have you been sneaking a peak at my medical record? Pick me - I would love to give this a try. kathleen dot lutz at doh dot state dot nj dot us
ReplyDeleteI don't have a fancy iron because I usually need a new one when one breaks down and I am desperate for another and settle with whatever is available at the hardware store!
ReplyDeleteDue to budgetary restraints (basically, poverty!) I make due with a 30 dollar iron from the 'Mart. I'd love to try something better..... one of my quilty dreams! Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful cutting tool. My older arms need all the help they can get! My favorite iron is an old Sunbeam travel iron that I "bought" with green stamps. It is steam and is small and so great to press the quilting that I love to do.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen this cutter before--it looks very safe! I love the Rowenta travel iron--lots of steam and it doesn't turn itself off, so it's always nice and hot!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron is one that works! Have tried expensive ones, cheap ones...right now it's the most expensive one that Walmart had at the time, Black & Decker digital. So far it's working great.
ReplyDeleteThat is an amazing cutting system! I am always veering off on the ends of the strips I cut so this would sure help!
ReplyDeleteI had a Sunbeam iron that I loved. I didn't use steam with it so I never had any issues with spitting or leaking. And it got hot enough to really press out the wrinkles in the fabric. Unfortunately, it got knocked off the ironing board one time too many and quit working. I haven't found anything I like as well since.

I have an iron fetish..my daughter can't believe how many I have. I presently use the Rowenta travel iron and love it. Also have the Maytag cordless, a larger Rowenta, and several other travel irons. I prefer the irons that don't have automatic cut off, very annoying when you're quilting and don't use the iron as often. Would love to have this super cutter..also have a rotary cutter fetish!!! it's sad..

What a fantastic ruler! My favorite iron is a big old heavy GE that I found at a rummage sale. I like it because it gets really hot and it' heavy. It can take on any wrinkle!
ReplyDeleteThe SEW EASY RULER CUTTER looks like it would solve a lot of my issues/handicaps. I am so hopeful it will find its way to my house. Kristy in Ohio
ReplyDeleteLove to win a ruler. My favorite iron is a Rowenta steam generator.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite iron was an older model Rowenta that worked so well it almost made me look forward to ironing.
ReplyDeleteMy sister recently got a compact Rowenta travel iron for use when she's out & about with projects. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI would be Michele's sister that recently got the compact Rowenta. It glides over the fabric sew well.
ReplyDeleteThe best iron ever was the Bernina (made for, it says) with a steam tank that I won on a shop hop years ago. It was perfect. I can't even bear to dispose of it...I am still dreaming that someone will fix the switch for me and I will be back in steam iron heaven.
ReplyDeleteThat ruler is so cool - haven't seen it yet at any if the shops in my area (central Indiana). My favorite iron is my big, heavy Rowenta. It presses blocks, irons fabric, and does a great job on my clothes too!
ReplyDeleteI don't have a favorite iron. I am happy to have one that works.
