"Amazing! I’ve been sewing with waxed canvas for years and have always used the handle of my scissors to crease hems. It leaves marks and doesn’t work that well. I thought this tool was a bit pricey, but it’s very well made, heavy and solid- a good deal for the cost. It works so well, I can’t even believe it. I fold over the hem, roll over it and it stays put- doesn’t unfold at all. No more pins or wonder clips needed! Wish I’d found it years ago."

This is our favorite tool for making crisp, even folds in fabric—especially waxed canvas! It has a light, textured wooden handle for easy gripping and an extra-heavy, chrome-coated roller that requires little effort to press thick seams for a professional and finished look. Heat can damage coated or waxed fabrics (and they’ll ruin your iron!), but this tool gives a clean, heatless press with no outlet or wait-time required.
While the steel fabric roller really shines when used on waxed canvas, it also works great on many other types of fabric and leather, including oilcloth, canvas, denim, laminated fabrics, silk, organza, leather, suede, corduroy, velvet, viscose, and other synthetics.
Tool Dimensions: 5 3/4” x 2 3/4” (Roller Head: 2" wide [60mm])
Care Considerations: We recommend cleaning the head of this tool with dish soap and water. Do not scrub with steel wool, or the chrome may peel. Do not submerge the wooden handle in water and do not use dish soap on the wood or it will dry out. Let the tool air dry completely before using on your fabric.

This is an amazing tool. I can’t believe I have been making bags without this! I feel like my folds are much more crisp then ever before!

For many years I resisted purchasing this roller. When I gave in and bought it, I wondered why I hadn't purchased it sooner. Because you can't really press waxed canvas with an iron, this is the perfect solution to making sure seams lie flat before and after sewing. Very glad I bought it. I've been using it daily.
Wasn’t sure that I needed this tool but I have used it over and over again! It is well made!
I love this roller. It has some heft to it to make nice creases. I wonder, if you heated it up with a hairdryer, if it could nearly take the place of an iron?! Thanks would be a nice tool to add to your supplies.
absolutely love it
I love my steel fabric roller! So great for working with waxed canvas. I use it all the time.
Awesome, thank you Julia!
I love this roller for not just waxed canvas, but it's great for a quick seam press on quilting fabric. No need to get up from my machine and go to the iron. I'm sure I'll find other uses for it too.
Thanks, Debbie! I love the steel fabric roller tool! One of those tools that makes you think 'How did I ever get along sewing without this?!'
I wish I could post a video with this review. I’ve been sewing with waxed canvas for years and have always used the handle of my scissors to crease hems. It leaves marks and doesn’t work that well. I thought this tool was a bit pricey, but it’s very well made, heavy and solid- a good deal for the cost. It works so well, I can’t even believe it. I fold over the hem, roll over it and it stays put- doesn’t unfold at all. No more pins or wonder clips needed! Wish I’d found it years ago.
I love this steel fabric roller! I waited a long time to purchase but now am so glad I did, and highly recommend!
Does this steel roller also work well for other materials, such as cottons or blended fabrics, for creating a quick seam instead of using an iron?
Yes, it totally works for making a crease on other fabrics as well! Not as dramatic as a steam iron, but the weight of it makes a nice quick fold.
What size is the roller head? 2"?
You have a great eye! Yes, the roller head is 2" wide.
