    I found the link where I ordered it. I don't know if the free shipping is still available though. It's been about a year since I ordered. http://www.paperplus.com/productdeta...p?bvn=10016356

    That price is awesome for Vellum.

    If you use a smaller stitch when paper piecing, the paper comes right off. Check out Carol Doak. She is an expert at paper piecing, and is my idol. She has a website and a yahoo group.

    She has many many hints for a beginner and is only too happy to share.

    Freezer paper PP is the method of now sewing through the paper, many like and prefer this method. Maybe try it on a few practice blocks? You can find Youtube videos on how to do it :D:D:D

    The freezer paper method is the only one I paper piece by. So easy. Here's the tutorial page:
