    After quilting for 15 years I am now looking into labeling my quilts.
    My question, is parchment paper same as freezer paper. I know I can print labels but I may want to make my own.
    I have parchment that I use for baking.
    Everywhere I read they say freezer paper to stabilize the fabric.

    Freezer paper has a plastic coating on the back. That is the side you iron onto the back of your fabric :wink:
    You can usually find it close to the parchment paper in the store :D:D:D

    I do not think parchment paper has the wax on it to hold it in place as goes thorough the printer Wax paper is different and heaver

    parchment paper will not adhere to fabric to stabilize it.
