Having never paper pieced.....but here's what came to mind. What if you put the finished quilt in the dryer for a short time, just on the "air fluff" or whatever the cycle without heat would be. No matter how good I am about sorting my laundry, the occasional Kleenex goes through the wash cycle and your clothing is covered. Throwing everything in the dryer eliminates the picking of paper pieces from your garments. Seems to me, most of the paper would end up in the lint trap and you would just toss it away.
