I want to cut this and use it to conceal the seam between two sofa cushions under a slipcover. Is it smooth enough for that?

Yes, that should work. It is smooth and soft enough but may protrude a little under your slip cover.

I used it to cut polar fleece and it worked fine but i dont know about cutting leather. I will also tell you that it is very loud.

It does have a nice smooth edge. I suppose you would be able to cut it with household scissors but I don't know how the edges would feel after that. There is another shown that is 17 x 22

hey James!for sur you could cut it, although you'd have to be extra careful and not mess it up: it is a nice product!

Yes!, I have cut leather too. But, it has a fairly short blade, I find for fabric a longer blade makes for smoother cutting.

I don't know. I think it would depend on the sofa. Does it have a fabric finish? I have a leather sofa and I think it might work better on leather as it's a harder surface, but I'll sample it and get back to you. Thanks.

It's designed for one or more fairly thin layers of fabric, and only cuts a smooth curve for items 1-2 mm thick or less. I'm not sure 1/4" would fit within the radius of the blade. Even if it did fit under the blade, the resulting cut would be pretty choppy-- the blade won't roll smoothly if embedded so deeply. Slow manual cutting with an Exacto knife blade would be better.

My guess would be no, it's fabric, not plastic, so you would be cutting through seams. Why would one want to cut it?

I take back my answer, after (a lot of) practice, I can get a smooth, attractive cut about 90% of the time :3--Original Answer--Yes, but it probably won't be a very attractive cut.I used it to cut plastic and it rarely came out looking good.

Yes, this will make it better, but I wouldn't recommend keeping it on the sofabed when it is in sofa mode. These pads take a while to flatten after being curled.

Yes! I do recommend it! I bought the fabric to make pillows to my sofa. And sometimes we do sleep on them. Enjoy their beautiful color.

It is really designed for cutting on. It is not that soft to allow for bumps

I wouldnt cut it down. There is a seam that goes all the way around the outer edge to hold the fabric together and probably keep it from fraying.

I really like mine, but I have found the recommended blade settings for cutting fabric are not accurate. I use mine for cutting fabric a whole lot to applique and I go through matts fairly quickly. However, I have had much success cutting vinyl. if I could do it over again I would invest in the cameo for the larger cutting size. Hope this helps!

No. It's made to thin the edges on leather around the area you are sewing togeather

Hi, I bought this to use as a leather strop for sharpening knives; I glued it to a piece of wood w/ contact cement, and it works great for that purpose. I did a little leather work many years ago, and it seems like this leather could be sewn with leatherwork needles - it's not that thick, but the thickness does vary throughout the piece I have. One side is finished & the other side is unfinished.

I've only used it for quilting and it will cut through several thicknesses of cotton fabric. I just tried it on naugahyde ....not exactly heavy duty leather, but it cut right through it.
