Yes I have used it when I was making a chenille quilt...
could have done it without the tape but that blue stuff really made life a whole lot easier.. |

I use it often when making quilts, and for other things as well.

I have a roll of blue painters tape in the trunk of our car for when I sandwich quilts at the community center and another at home near my machine at all times.

It seems as I'm working on a project - I forget where I was measuring from - or am too involved in what I'm doing to write anything down. Thus began my dependence on blue painter's tape. It sticks great - peels off easily with no residue. I never really thought about it much until my latest project. When I was putting my ruler away I looked at it wondering.. how did this make sense? Knowing perfectly well that at the time I was using it, it was quite rational. |
I do the smae...LOL Great minds think a like.
|
Great idea....I've used painter's tape for all sorts of things over the years.
|
Oh yes, I use it all the time. I made some mistakes cutting before I used it, but not any more.

I use Sharpies. They clean off easily with alcohol or hand sanitizer. I tried tape but it seemed....maybe too wide or something....I kept getting confused by which side of the 1" tape I was supposed to follow.
