Hi Sharyn,

Years ago I purchased a RTW blouse on clearance, ripped the seams, and traced the pieces on freezer paper to make a master pattern. I've made at least 10 blouses with that freezer paper pattern, pressing it on the fabric, lifting, moving, re-pressing, etc., and it still sticks.

However, that being said, I've also made double-sided freezer paper templates for applique and discovered that if I'm brushing liquid starch on the edges, the templates don't last as long. I think the most I got from one template was about 40 uses.

Hope this helps.
