Default slippery table issue - solved

I sew on my dining room table. It's a large oval and I have my machine at the end of one of the long sides so the quilt I'm working on can rest on the table. Problem has been that the table is so slick I have to fight to keep the quilt on it. Today I moved a cutting mat right next to my machine - it's a smaller one I don't use often because I have a large one opposite my machine on the other long side of the table. Then I moved a stool to my left. The mat keeps the quilt from sliding off the table and the stool supports the part that hangs over. When I'm not using it I slide the stool under the table - out of the way and ready for a grand boy to visit while I sew. I'm a happy camper. The Issue of the Sliding Quilt has bugged me for over a YEAR!
