I belong to an online quilt guild called Quiltnet (been a proud member for over a dozen years), and, back in February, someone mentioned HFT. Now, I was skeptical.... 2 - 45mm blades for $1.99 a package? How good can they be? Well, others spoke up and the secret was out! Their "carpet cutter blades" fit our Olfas! I ordered 10 packages (20 blades) and (with my coupon - they have coupons everywhere!) plus shipping paid less than $23.

Someone said they thought these blades may dull faster than Olfa, but I haven't noticed that. Hey, for a few bucks, it's worth a try, right?
While I'm at it, look what arrived in the mail this week. This is Alexander Henry's line, The Ghastlies!* From my understanding, it was released last year and they re-released it this year due to demand. This is my favorite one in the line:
Can't wait to see what trouble I can get into with this line!
Happy Stitching!

I've been hesitant to buy them too, but if I hear of a few more who can vouch for them working well, I will buy too. It's time those blades came down in price everywhere.
ReplyDeleteI bought some at Three Sisters in Carson City and haven't had a problem with them. Are you close to them? Well, actually, now that I think about it, you got a good deal. The ones I got were $1.99 each.
