someone mentioned glue stick and copy paper as another way to go...tried in this morning and it also worked like a charm! I scored the lines using one of those spiky metal wheels(?) and got a neat folded edge. I will likely never rip away that newsprint again... plus I am saving trees, thread and clean up time.
Great idea Basketman. I have one of those "spikey metal wheel" things in my old sewing supplies. Now I have to look for it as I have not used it for years and years.
