Hi Lisadams. You can't see it so I will post a picture. When you press down on the wooden handle, these 1" plastic dots are deployed that really grip the fabric. I have tried it and it does really work. But it is sort of cutting backwards. You need another ruler to line up your cut. I saw a post many months ago about a quilter who was cutting backwards and didn't know she was doing it backwards. I have started cutting that way too and with the entire 6" ruler solidly on the fabric, I find the ruler is not moving anymore. You just have to find you nitch with what works for you !!
