It's a self sticking sheet of teflon (I think it's teflon) that adheres to the bed of your sewing machine with an opening for the needle to work through to your quilt & it allows your quilt to slide more easily on your work surface, while you are sewing on it. Apparently it helps, especially after sandwiching when there is a lot more weight to move around.
I have not tried one but from the opinions expressed here, the majority seem to be positive. You can buy them at your LQS & I believe, on line. It is also moveable so when you don't need it, it lifts off. They also appear to last a long time, as long as you are careful & don't sew thru the slider. Hope this helps. Personally, I need all the help I can get to make things easier.
