Why makers want it
Less fuss at the cutting table. More joy in the project.
Designed for jelly roll rug makers, quilters and anyone sewing 2-1/2 inch strips, the Strip Trimmer turns repetitive seam trimming into a faster, cleaner rhythm.
Save time
Move from seam to seam without carefully repositioning a regular ruler for every cut.
Cut accurately
Printed alignment and precision-cut slots help produce a consistent 1/4 inch seam allowance.
Reduce fatigue
Fewer scissor cuts and less hand strain make long strip projects easier to enjoy.
Avoid mistakes
Clear alignment marks help reduce over-cutting, crooked cuts, and repeated measuring.
Use it widely
Great for any jelly roll strip projects including (but not limited to!) rugs, placemats, bags, hats, quilt binding and other 2-1/2 inch strip projects.

How it works
Trim every diagonal seam with a steady, repeatable process.
The Strip Trimmer replaces slow scissor trimming and ruler repositioning with one simple alignment guide and three clean rotary cuts.
Sew your strips
Sew two fabric strips together right sides together, perpendicular to each other, to create the diagonal seam.
Do not trim yet
Instead of trimming after each seam with scissors, keep sewing strips together and leave the fabric tails attached.
Place the Trimmer
Lay the Strip Trimmer over one seam using Line 1, so the stitched seam and cutting slots line up accurately.
Make the cuts
Hold firmly and insert your rotary cutter into slots A, B, and C for three quick, consistent cuts.
Move to the next seam
Lift the trimmer, slide to the next joined strip, place it over the seam, and repeat.
The finished feeling
Consistent cuts without turning trimming into the whole project.
Instead of lining up a ruler for every seam or using scissors for each tail, the Strip Trimmer helps you move quickly through long joined strips with professional-looking results.
