Thank you for this tute! I love paper piecing and do it quite a lot, and will try your method on my next pp quilt.
I have always understood that the sewing on the paper while pp helps keep the fabric from stretching and distorting, and I know that the added bulk helps the piece to go between the machine foot and the feed dogs. But after saying that, there is an awful lot of ripping paper and usually quite a mess all around to clean up after you're through!
Off I go now to Amazon to buy the freezer paper!
Thanks again- I printed your tute. Used up 16 pieces of paper, which will now go into my special notebook where I have all sorts of tips, insights and tutes found here on the board :-D
