Neat marking helper
Neat use for unused adhesive floor tiles:
Peel paper backing off 12" adhesive vinyl floor tile Press a square of medium/fine sandpaper on to sticky side.
This keeps material from slipping when marking applique or piecing blocks.

Oh heck, I recently got rid of a few of these tiles. Why is it that as soon as you throw or give something away, you find a great use for it? Maybe I can just buy one from an opened package at the diy store. Thanks for the idea.

Good tip. I use a manila folder, then glue a sheet of fine sandpaper, or I have used medium to the inside. I like the floor tile idea as it's 12", but using a manila folder might keep you from getting scratched by the sandpaper (ask me how I know this).
