    Default A quilting notion that really works
    Saw these "grip strips" demoed at a shop hop. Decided to spring for the $10 since nothing I've tried stops my rulers from slipping. THESE REALLY STOP THE SLIPPING.

    Good to know. I bought some and never put them on my ruler. Guess I better pull the package out and use it. Thanks for sharing.

    I agree. Over the years I've tried almost every possibility, and the grip strips are absolutely the best of them all. Someone on the QB posted a rave about them; otherwise I'm not sure I would have found them.

    I agree. BFF, rebeljane put me onto these and I've just ordered some more for myself and some for another friend.
