I have a menthod for printing on freezer paper that has worked for me each time I've tried it. I saved the sticky backings that I'd peeled off the "printable fabric sheets" after printing and removing the fabric ... (to save them I placed a sheet of plastic wrap on the sticky side before storing flat for use later) ...months later, after remembering exactly where I'd stored them - I cut the FP into letter size and stuck the glossy side to the sticky side and they went right through the printer. I found that like FP, these sticky backings could be used multiple times. Don't know where to tell you to get JUST the sticky backs but if you ever have a project requiring the printable fabric sheets DON'T DISCARD those backs after removing your printed fabric.
Hope this helps - I hadn't previously seen this technique - but I think I'm going to have to try it. Your first block is impressive! Since you weren't able to post the photo of the pattern, can you tell us the name of the pattern?

OK tried ironing just a narrow strip of the top of a slightly smaller sheet of FP to a normal piece of paper and it went thru just fine...so far! 32 more to go!
If there are other ways I'm a good learner!
Awright!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! First piece done! Not perfect but I've learned something new! Only 32 more to go! I feel like we are all doing it together.
