I use velium sheets 8.5 by 11.5. Rather than spend lots of money on copy fees or for ink. I use my unthreaded sewing machine to make copies of the same patterns. Once you have sewed over all the lines than take your pen and number the pieces. Works great for me and I love paper piecing.

What kind of paper dissolves in water? And where do I get it? I've never heard of it but love pp and would love this type of paper even more.

You're correct! I clicked on that also and it is an x-rated site. The correct website is called http://dickblick.com which a site for artist supplies! I'm sure it was just a typo on on her part...
