Hi janedb -
Someone else posted this link -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rubber_cement. When I posted this thread, it never dawned on me that this product was not universal. It is used here in the US as an office supply as well as in art for mounting photos and other art objects. After it sets up and dries - the excess can be gently rubbed off leaving no trace of the product. Usually comes in a jar or a tin.
Kitsie - yes I too find that if I leave thread on the cutting board that it will pick them up. I have not had any trouble picking up lint from quilt shop fabric - but never tried it on flannel - which I expect would be very linty and stick to it. When the coating outlives it usefulness - I just rub it off and reapply a new coat.
