I use it for baking. If I put it on the baking sheet underneath the bierocks, I don't have a mess to clean up.

baking cookies......lol

but also used for paper piecing.

I also use it for designing quilting motifs. Because I got a deal at a close out. About 700 sheets for about 6 cents a sheet.

I use it on cookie sheets when baking certain items and on pizza pans when cooking a pizza. Like waladopa said, no clean up. Never heard of it being used in quilting.

Good Morning. Aside from the obvious...I use the parchment paper for fusible webbing fabric items. I have been working on quilt blocks for myself, it has Tea pots, cups, and saucers on it. Each item has different pictures fused to it. By using the parchment paper when ironing the pic to the fabric it keeps the fusing from melting on to the iron.

Hope that helps some, Nana Julie

It works well as an appliqué sheet also. If you have a detailed design, you build it on the sheet first, let it cool and then peel it off.

Parchment paper is one of the all time great multi-taskers! No studio should be without it. :D

I buy parchment paper at grocery store, Walmart, dollar store. I buy it by the roll. It should be near the wax paper, or by the baking supplies.

I have found that you can buy Reynold's Parchment Paper and pay almost $1. less than Wilton's Parchment paper.
