    I just picked up some coffee filters at the Dollar store: 160 in the package for $1.

    I believe it is supposed to tear away very easy, with a little spray of water at the seams it should just pull away. I will be trying this tomorrow.

    Thanks for the link. I use the small filters for a 4 cup & hubby uses the larger ones. Got to try these. Thanks so much for the link and to everyone with other uses.

    What a great idea, I will use it for my next "Mug Rug" sewing. Good way to use some scraps.

    I don't use coffee filter for coffee but I use them for dusting, cleaning mirrors, windows, layering cookies in a tin or plate, I let one absorb the grease floating on top of soups/stews, microwave, and so many more uses. The big size ones you can find at Sam's or Cosco are great. I keep a package of small, regular, and industrial size.

    This will be a great demo for guild so thanks for posting!
