I believe they used it for foundation paper for string quilts.

I did the same with Press and Seal. I still have the roll but can't remember what somebody said it to use it for. Seemed like a good idea at the time

Some people draw a quilting design on the press and seal and quilt thru it. I personally don't care for it because it's a pain to get the little bits of plastic out between the stitches, especially if you have an area that you had to go over a few times, like intersections and such. Sulky Solvy is similar, but washes out. So much easier! :)

I use strips of Press n Seal to wind around my spools of thread to keep them from unwinding.

The deli papers are indeed useful for foundation paper piecing.

LOL!! You must be my cousin or something!:D Jus cuz someone said buy it, you bought it and didn't know why. I do that all the time.

Oh, and BLAP", you're a genius with that Press and Seal! Will pick some up tomorrow.

I use the deli papers for string piecing. I use the Press and Seal to make storage bags any size I need.

Crazy quilt?

Thanks for shaking my brain....I am going to print these and tape them onto the box of deli sheets for future reference!-- or better yet dig out that box of scrap strips and do it! Hmmm, maybe next month!
