    I might be asking for some of that paper in my next exchange - the ONLY place I've seen it here - at a quilt shop - it was $18 for the box.
    I've not seen freezer paper at any supermarket or grocery shop yet - but I'm looking!

    Great thread, have learned a lot on this one. Never gave it a thought to use freezer paper for PP before. I love this board and all of you!!

    Hey Kitsie! Glad to see you're deciding to give freezer paper a try after all. :) I find I can reuse my freezer paper templates about half a dozen times or so. Enjoy, and please post pictures for us of what you're making! Can't wait to see. :D

    Thanks Salmon! It's because of your help with that tutorial that I'm doing this. May be able to post a picture later today. Have stitched together one unit, now doing the curved seams but going to feed 12 horses their grain first.

    OK tried ironing just a narrow strip of the top of a slightly smaller sheet of FP to a normal piece of paper and it went thru just fine...so far! 32 more to go!

    If there are other ways I'm a good learner!
    Awright!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First piece done! Not perfect but I've learned something new! Only 32 more to go! I feel like we are all doing it together.

    Sun, the first piece
