Use the cheapest copy paper. A small stitch to sew. Fold paper over at seam and I also either run a finger nail or a point down the paper seam line then pull paper off from the seam leave rest on but sew seam together and enlarge stitch slightly. Edges are thick and bulky especially in pictorial pictures in paper piecing.a spritz of water also helps to soften paper and stop the fly away all over the place just before pulling apart.
enjoy I do.

I never have any problem with it jamming my printer and is very thin and tears of completely clean. I use it so often that I buy 4 reams at a time. Great Stuff and cheap!

I just ordered some. I use Vellum and find it works very well. If this does half as well, I'm going to be a new fan.
Thank you for the information.

5moose, do you have the url to the actual product you purchase? I went to dickblick but only found tablets and rolls.

This isn't 5moose, but if you go to the site and put "news print paper" in the search area, it will bring you where you need to be. Think click on Blick on the left and you'll find the reams to order near the bottom of the page.
