Parchment paper does not scorch, at least not on the cotton setting (about 325º) in months of use for fusing. It does scorch in the oven on about the third batch of cookies, however. :lol: You can also use parchment paper to add a paper backing to fusibles without one, like Misty Fuse.
The release paper, btw, can be used to transfer drawn lines directly onto fusible once it's on fabric...meaning you do not have to cut out shapes with the paper still on the fabric. Saves hours of peeling bits of paper off fabric while fraying edges and does not dull your scissors.

This may sound weird, but I have an acrylic extension table on my Bernina 180E, and I sprinkle a bit of Gold Bond Body Powder (original), (or I suppose any talcum powder would work) on the table and spread it around with my hand, and the surface becomes "slippery" enough to move my quilt effortlessly. Just a small amount will do...I brush off any excess that the quilt has picked up with no effect on the quilt whatsoever.

I also use it for app. patterns. Works great. Put the pattern on a window. Put the Parchment paper over the pattern. Tape them. Outline your pattern - works great..even better than tissue which rips so easily.

Just bought 1000 sheets yesterday. I use it mostly for my baking/cooking.
DH told me I would have a lifetime supply. If I start using it for
quilting it might not last that long. :wink:
Edit: FYI, I got the parchment paper at Canadian Wholesale.

The only other Parchment paper is like Vellium that drafting people use and landscapers for plot drawings and it comes in very large sheets. I can't imagine she was referring to this parchment paper. I'd try the parchment baking paper just beware that when it unrolls it sounds like someone scratching finer nails down a chalk board. It gives me chills every time I have to cut a piece.LOL
