what about a roll of newsprint? Maybe from either an office supply store or an art supply store. Or a business like U.S. Toy & Constructive Plaything which is in KC, MO and on-line and carries school supplies for teachers??

I am looking for a desgn patten that can be done for a block that is entire row. I could just do liness or random but looking for some actual design that is not so freestyle-ish.

Does it have to be foundation/paper pieced? Is this an idea you have thought of, or did you see it somewhere? Just curious...I know Lori holt of bee in my bonnet has a few row patterns, but not paper pieced....

I would start on this link below, and using a roll of parchment, with strips cut to the length I want, design my own pattern using free patterns available around the internet, a and fine point sharpie.

Good luck. All I did to find these was enter “paper piece row by row quilt”

When taking a course from Karen Buckley, she provided us with a roll of doctor's examining table paper. I also got a narrow roll of face table paper from my son, the chiropractor. It is strong, eraseable, easy to fold and transparent. It is so easy to use when you want to duplicate a motif. Both of these are fairly inexpensive. Check your local medical supplier.

Paper piecing
I use old pattern sheets to paper piece. Some of my old patterns have full skirts pieces and that works great. If I want to run it through the printer to copy a pattern, I iron the wax size of freezer paper to the pattern paper and it copies great. You can reuse the freezer paper several times.
