i use normal printer paper and just do one or two copies and get it duplicated at the copy store. i ask them to use their thinnest paper which usually is not that thin, regular copy paper again. i have , to my surprise, had no problems at all with seeing through it or ripping it off the seams. i shorten the stitch length to 1.5. Carol Doak paper is lovely to work with buti find costly, tissue paper too fragile (i sometimes have to rip out and do again). i would not do 125 copies on my home printer, it is more economical for me to go to the copy store, they can even scale it up if you want. never cost more than three dollars total.

i prefer the colored paper, too. and i also use the fold back method. i rarely have trouble lining up the pieces.

I print on freezer paper. My printer doesn't like it so to avoid sticking and the paper getting crumbled I first attach the freezer paper on a sheet of regular printer paper about 1/4" at the bottom with hot iron.
I use the No-tear method, folding the paper instead of sewing through it. The freezer paper pattern can be used several times, as long as it sticks to your fabric. I usually print 6 -8, more when these can't be used any more.Tutorial:
