I understand that people don't want to read the whole thread, but I find it hilarious that they are still answering the question of where to put the mat when the poster already said, several pages ago, that her bathtub is too narrow for her 36" mat. LOL

Well I kept popping back Gale, and I have several ideas now. I was waiting for any reports from anyone who has tried the idea out and thinks it might have helped.

One of the ways I get the lint from batting and other difficult fabrics off of my cutting board is to take a small square plastic ruler, turn it on edge and scrape the cutting board. It doesn't take out all of the fuzzies, but does clean it up considerably. I am going to tread my several cutting boards as it sounds like it does help.

Me too! And when you see a topic that looks interesting, but have to read thro 5+ pgs of redundancy...so much wasted time I could have been quilting! Grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!! One of the downsides, I guess.
