I found a yellow tracing paper on the roll just by chance at an art store. I was pretty cheap so I thought I would try that.Haven't yet, I have moved twice in the last year. I saw some Golden Threads paper in a quilt store and this stuff looked an awful lot like it.

I have to ask, what type of batting did you use on your quilt. Absolutely gorgeous quilting. Beautiful work!

Here is a link to the post about this quilt when I first finished it. It includes additional pictures, types of batting and thread.

I've been using cheap tissue paper also. It usually comes in 20x30" sheets. that's 10" squares and you also get a lot with about 30 sheets in a package for a couple of bucks. You can see right through it.

Unlike felinefenatic, who does exceptional quilting, I've used golden threads tear away in sashing strips and borders mostly, it tore easily and I was able to do nice, even ropes and other designs.

Feline fanatic that is such a clever idea! Ifletcher does this mean you keep reusing your ST paper over and over again if your using pounce? Does anyone else do this?

lfletcher, I bought the GT paper a while back to use just as you do, I didn't even know people actually sewed it to the quilt lol, learn something new here everyday. Of course it's going to be a long time till I get to use it but I have it when the time comes
