Nice tip ! No sticky residu and a thicker 'barrier' than painters tape.

I have a nice metal guide that is magnetized and stays in place. Works like your note pad, but much smaller and easier to use. Think I got it at JoAnn's some time ago.

I like this idea. Thanks

Oh, WOW...neat idea when in hurry and can't find my magnetized one.Things just seam to disappear when you just had them 2 minutes ago......Thanks
smiles, hugs and flowers to all.........

thanks, I usually use painters tape which doesn't work very well. I'm going to put a stack beside my machine right now!

I wouldn't use a magnetised guide or any other magnetic tool near my embroidery machine, or any computerised machine.
I was under the impression that magnetic items can interfere with the computer in the machine.
I have, however, used thick double-sided sticky tape, such as is used for sticking pictures to walls, leaving the top plastic protection in tact.
I like the thick stack of Post-It-Notes best of all.
Thank you for that excellent tip.

Great tip! I cannot sew a straight line so I always have to have a guide of some sort to help me. This works fantastic!

Good tip, thanks. Jan

Thanks, great tip! Doesn't happen often, but when it does I really need something like this. Now if I can only remember it when I need it......hee hee hee. Hugs, Marji

Thanks for the reminder!!

excellent i put tape on my machine and wrote/marked on the tape hugs and thanks

This is a handy hint using sonmething most of us probably have on hand When I was teaching girls to sew for 4-H I would give them each a stick of gum . Leaving the paper on, tape it down on the machine bed and the fabric will glide right along nicely. When the were finished for the day they got to unwrap and chew the gum. 8&9 year olds thought this was wonderful!

thanks for the tip, I have always used tape but i like the idea of having an 'edge'. .

Tks for the hint!!! Great idea!

Thank you

Thank you.
