So, when I was at the grocery store I looked in the bandaid isle and found a tape by 3M called Nexcare. While in the package it did not look like it could hold a ruler up tight to the fabric without slipping and since it was $4.99, I was not too sure about purchasing it.
Well, I did decide to get it and it is WONDERFUL!! And the roll will last like forever!!
I also put it on my 24" ruler and it works great on that one too!! Plus, when it stops working I have plenty more!!

Thanks for this wonderful tip! I will look for some the next time I'm in the store. :)
I bought quilty stuff that was supposed to keep rulers from slipping. It. did. not. work. at. all. I am sure this is less expensive than that stuff was and if it wouldn't work could be used for its given purpose. Thanks for posting.
That's a wonderful idea! Thanks so much for the tip. The sandpaper dots are okay, but aren't as "grippy" as I'd like. I'll try this out!
KRIS!! I just learned that you are my Secret Santa!!!! You were the BEST SS there was; I so appreciated all your sweet treats!! I especially am loving the Earl Grey tea -- do you live near the tea shop that it came from? Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! HUGS! :)
Thanks for this tip, I'll give it a try.
Thanks for the tip! I am starting the new year by "reviving" my creativity and am sure this will be a great tip to use! BTW, I live in St. George, too!
Thank you for the great tip! in the long run, this will be less expensive than using little rubber needle pullers.
That's a great idea for those of us who live 50 miles away from a fabric and notion store! Thank You!!
Thank you so much. I put the sand paper on mine and haven't liked it at all.
Will it come off easily or will I have to scrub to get residue off of my ruler when it needs to be changed?
Use alittle goo b gone.
