alt.canvas work surface

A sculptural piece's content helps me determine the surface texture I
use, but two of my favaorite materials to roll slabs on are felt and
terry cloth. The felt is a good alternative to canvas texture which, I
find distracting (unless it is the point that I am trying to make).
The terry cloth is for me more adventurous texture. That offers more
variety, due to stretching and the direction which I roll the clay out
on it.
