I also use Carol Doaks method too. I have found that the paper removal process is easier if I take the seam line paper out as I go along. I have never made a large quilt though. Just large wallhangings. I have been teaching Carols method for several years. My advice, leave paper in! The other thing I advise is to use PP paper. I figure if Im putting lots of effort, $$ for good fabric, a few more $$ for the best paper is not a deal breaker. Skip copy paper!
