I too started with the oven liner and found it did not help much. I then decided to spring for the
Supreme Slider and it was better but not perfect. I have heard about a silicone spray that you can spray on your machine bed but have never found it. Anybody know where to get it and how it works??

Before I got those I got a hold of some fitted gloves that medical personnel use to see if they worked. I like the quilting gloves better but they too have to fit firmly - I could still slide around inside the small so I went to extra small and all is well with my match stick sized fingers.
