I use the freezer paper method all the time and love it. I create my pieces by sewing through the paper to create a sort of dotted line that folds back very easily. I sew through several layers at a time by stapling layers together and then stitching the whole stack at a time (6 or more). You can reuse the freezer paper templates so you don't need as many. When you remove there freezer paper, remove it in the order you sewed it. In other words start at one and peel in the direction of the numbers.
