I have always hated removing the paper, and with the freezer paper method you don't have to. And, you don't even have to use freezer paper. You can just pin your pattern to the first piece of fabric and away you go. I think this is a beautiful, beautiful star.
Thanks Judy for explaining the different methods. I saw that someone had put "regular PP" and wondered what the other way was. I am going to try the freezer paper method for the same reason you gave. I don't like ripping out paper either. Thanks!
