I have tried every type of paper for paper piecing. The best for me is
vellum, not the scrapbooking vellum, that is too thick. I use lightweight translucent vellum bought at an online paper shop on clearance by the ream. I paid once and have enough to last the rest of my quilting life. I can even mess up the printing and not fret about wasting the vellum. LOL. Before I found vellum I was using the children's drawing paper pads from the dollar store made from newsprint. It goes through the printer and tears easy. Too easy sometimes. I would suggest you buy the REMOVEABLE tape. It is a must have to repair a tear on the paper pattern or if you sew a piece wrong side up. I also like the leave in poly sheets that turn to tissue thin soft fabric when washed. There are so many paper options available. Pick the type that gives you less frustration not which cost the least.
