]I work in a school. They quit using that paper with the double lines on it I used in kindergarten. They were going to give it to the kids or throw it out. Makes great paper piecing paper. I have seen it in the school supply aisle. I never look at the price. I'm not sure I will ever have to buy it again. I have a big pile of paper
I've seen this (old lined writing paper) at the Dollar Store - not Dollar General but the ones where everything is $1. Our newspapers won't give the end rolls any more, they recycle it.

Sorry about that, nstitches. Dick Blick is one of the greatest stores/websites on earth. I'm a third generation customer.
They also sell fabric paints and dyes, Intense pencils, Shiva Paintstiks, fabric markers and crayons, any kind of screen printing supplies you could ever want plus much more, all at great prices. Their fabric surface design department is growing just as fast as the interest in the genre grows.

I decided to try my hand at paper piecing so after I read this thread I tore out several sheets from a doodle pad from Dollar Tree and used my ruler and rotary cutter to trim off 1/2 inch from the side. It fed through the printer just fine and is working great for the Mariner's Star I am piecing. I am guessing you could probably trim as many as 20 sheets at a time. Harriet Hargraves says she uses her rotary cutter all the time to prep her blocks and it doesn't dull the blade. So 60 sheets for a dollar seems cheap enough. I still have to see how it tears off.
