This is a great tip and one of those things that gives me that 'duh' moment - you know, why didn't I think of that?

I tried it because I had a dilly of a time trying to remove the paper and found the tiny pieces are hard to remove so a couple of nights ago I was thinking when I was supposed to be sleeping. I thought hey there HAS to be an easier way to get that friggin stuff off so next day I tried this trick and by golly it worked! Don't get it very wet, just enough to soften the paper. I'm working on my Glacier Star pattern by Judy Neimyer and I'm about half done with the sawtooth things and those little pieces will be easier to take off with this trick. Now going to take a break to fill out some papers and then will go do the 2nd half of the saw tooth things for the lone star part of the quilt and then I can sew the star together and start on the laast technique of the quilt. Every one have a great day, Huggies, Fay

I'll keep this in mind for when I learn how to paper piece.

Your all welcome. I didn't think it was fair not to share it with my fellow quilters. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay

Exactly why I never PP. To much playing around when I could be more productive doing something else. Glad it helps some.
