I received a pack of the Tru-Grips when I bought a template set. They work pretty well. I also use the Creative Grid rulers.
I also bought some skateboard tape, but found that they scratch my other rulers and templates when they rub against them. |
I use sandpaper dots that I make using a sheet of sandpaper that is sticky on one side and a paper hole punch.

What a great idea! I save those rubber bands all the time but hardly ever put them to use. Guess they will go out in the studio now. Thanks for that tip but I do wonder how you keep from cutting the bands when using a rotary cutter with the ruler?

http://www.guidelines4quilting.com/GripStrips.html i have them on all my rulers I so agree with you on this. The Grip Strips are the greatest invention even in my book. Well worth the money I spent and they work better than the sandpaper disks and "tub grippers" I had been using. |
I have used clear nail polish and table salt. You will to renew from time-to-time, but it does work.
|
I stray the back lightly with basting spray from the can and let it dry you can always take it off with fingernail polish remover I also do that to any template I am using it works great
|
I have these, didn't like them at all, my fabric kept twisting underneath them. I use some clear flat grippers I got at the quilt store, but will give the Nexcare a try. I also have some creative grid rulers that don't slip.
|
Grip strips is the only thing I use now. I had tried everything else and nothing ever seemed to work. They are great I use them on all my rulers, wouldn't be without them
