Yes, they are two completely different things.

Freezer paper is a heavy weight paper that is matte paper on one side and slick on the other---the matte side can be drawn on and the slick side can be ironed onto fabric.

Press and Seal is a plastic wrap that is sticky on one side and clings to whatever it is pressed against.

I have used freezer paper for stabilizing fabric that I am writing on (like a label) and I have used it as pattern pieces for applique. I have not used Press and Seal for any quilting projects.
Thanks Marcia, now I understand, and no, I don't think I would want to use anything that had a residue of adhesive, I think it would gum up the works on my machine.
