Step-6

Step-7
Cut the pattern pieces from the relevant fabrics; selecting the appropriate material setting for each and loading the correct housing and blade: the hessian and felt are cut with the rotary blade and bonded hessian with the premium carbide blade. Make sure to place the fabrics right-side down on to the cutting mat using the brayer to ensure good contact.
