Thanks.
I just used ordinary photocopy paper - nothing expensive or fancy at all. I stitched with a smaller stitch than the default one, so that it would tear away a bit more easily, and a good pair of tweezers seem to be a necessity to tweak out the odd corners caught at the seam junctions.
Patti, I can get smaller stitches when holding a block in my hands than when in a frame (unless I stab stitch, that is), and don't forget that I quilted my blocks without the backing fabric, so that was one layer less than usual. Give it a try on a scrap of fabric with a bit of batting behind it.
