the paper is called Neenah Paper UV/Ultra II Translucent 17 weight in Radiant White.

here's a website that sell's it to quilters but if you buy it thru a paper place its much cheaper.

$36 for 500 sheets compared to $10 for 100 sheets

Klue ~ Thanks for the website; I love paper piecing and am tempted to place an order. What I have used so far is Carol Doak's foundation piecing paper. Have you used that and are you able to make a comparison on the two products? I've had no problem in copying with the Carol Doak paper, but although I shortened my stitch length it was difficult to pick pieces of her paper out of tight "nooks & crannies". I'd be interested in your comment. And do you do alot of paper piecing?

i've used both and they don't even compare. i tossed all the carol doak in the trash once i discovered this paper.

if you knew me in real life this statement would shock you because i'm known for being a frugal person.
Thanks! I'm going to order some of that paper and try it out for myself. This is one of the things I just LOVE about this Quilter's Message Board ...... The fact that I can ask questions about products and get honest answers from other quilters, rather than shop owners/vendors who are sometimes just trying to sell their product (even if it ISN"T the best product on the market). Thanks again.
