Fuzz!

After trimming my Bucky quilt to square it for binding, I found this mess IN  my cutting mat!  All these fibers are embedded in the cuts!  I tried washing it out, but they are stuck in really good.  I read that an artist's rubber eraser works good on rubbing these fibers out of the cracks.  I'm gonna need one of those!  For now, I just turned my mat upside down so I don't get fuzz on other fabrics.  Oh, and by the way, I had to clean fuzz out of my bobbin case every time I changed the bobbin.  Fleece may be easy to work with, but it is very messy and leaves lint and fibers EVERYWHERE!
