Beautiful table topper, love the patroitic fabrics! I'm learning to paper piece. I've been working on a wall hanging that has some pieces that are 1" and the only way I can see to sew them properly is to PP. First I tried using printer/copy paper and found its so hard to remove all the paper. So eventually I found a store that sold blank newsprint sheets and I love using it. It removes so much easier its amazing the difference.
Now my problem is, I have one sewing machine that doesn't like the newsprint paper. The top thread seems to make large loops of thread on the underside layers of fabric. I tried using my other machine and it works fine with the paper.
Has anyone had this problem and did you find a solution? The machine will sew without any problems until I put that layer of paper on top of the fabric to sew the pp block.
Would appreciate hearing any comments. Chris
