I use the golden threads paper, it's wonderful and i guess you could spray baste it to regular copy paper to send it thru the printer but as you stitch thru the ink it gets embedded into the thread and i don't how well it will wash out, some of my quilt marking pencils don't wash out like that so i would try it on something that's not real important first.

I thought I saw in my internet searches that there a water soluble paper, that you just washed off when you finish sewing - will see if i can find the link

Thanks for all your responses. I really like the idea of ironing on the freezer paper. Spray basting is a real process around here as it flares up my asthma. My dear husband does all my spray basting in the basement for me. Inkjet ink should rinse out unless you have hit it with an iron. As for pinning on golden threads paper, the first thing that usually happens is that it tears where the pins are and then I have the design crooked. Thanks again, and maybe I'll try to invent something!

There is also a disappearing paper out there that you can print on and instead of tearing off it is water soluable. I use it primarily for paper piecing.
