    I just use my finger and rub it around in small circles. The batting comes together in a little ball.
    I used to be "hot", now it's just "hot flashes!"

    I have an olfa self healing. I take some water with a drop of dish soap and a vegetable brush. I put a towel under the board on the dining room table. I go over the mat scrubbing lightly,then I go over it again with clear water, I then go over it with a soft cloth. I leave till dry and then go over it with a quilting board smother
    I never believe in the word can't,unless you've tried

    I use a wet or dry Magic Eraser....works wonderfully....and you will be surprised at the amount of dirt is on their too, my eraser turned very brown.....but cleaned my mat beautifully....
    Yes that is a real picture of my hometown Temecula, California. We feature premiere Wineries, World Class Golf Courses, Pechanga Indian Casino and Hot Air Balloons

    I just read lately that an eraser will do the job. Maybe try and see...
    People who start projects and never finish them are cooler
    than people who never start projects at all.

    At the art supply store, they sell little squares of crepe rubber - known as frisket cleaners or frisket pickups. They pull fibers out of cutting mats very nicely.
