Okay, I am doing same. An album quilt for my daughter's wedding. It is a "friendship knot"pattern with the signatures within the knot and alternating blocks of Dresden plate. I knew about the card stock frame. What is the purpose of the paper ? The plan was to provide the Pigma pens so that guests can write/color directly on the background squares.

You put it on the back of the fabric - the idea is that it stabilizes the fabric so it won't move and stretch as people write on it.

Never tried it myself, though.

I'm making a lap quilt for my GD. I ironed the freezer paper onto pale blue broadcloth then cut into 2 1/2 strips. Each strip was cut 5 inches. I used a card stock cut 2 inches to lightly trace the seam lines. Used a micron .o5 for writing. Only one person went outside the line. Laid it out on my design wall but do not know how to post pics. She wanted blue and gray so most pieces were cut the same as the signature strips, and each row separated with one whole strip. Wish I could post pics since I could use opinions. I had no problem with the freezer paper sticking to the fabric. Make sure you are ironing the shiny side to the wrong side of fabric.

I've never had a problem with freezer paper adhering. Can't imagine the cause of the problem.

I have never had problem with freezer paper not sticking. I wash the fabric, no fabric softer iron it and iron it onto the freezer paper to send through my printer using Inklingo to printing my blocks and sewing line right onto my fabric. I reuse the freezer paper over and over. I have used it up to 19 times running it trough my printer without it coming loose. A fresh piece of freezer paper will sometime pull threads from the cut edge of the fabric. I have found the fabric sticks best if I iron the fabric on and then turn it over and iron on the paper side. The only way I get it off after that is to pull it off.

For traveling, I would just take a couple pieces of high number sand paper to place the fabric on. The fabric will hang on the the rough and make it easier to write on it. You could also use contact paper cut into sizes small enough to keep the signatures away from the edges. Either one will work better than freezer paper in this instance.

Signature Block Signing Folder
 

When I do signature blocks, I make a "frame" to place the fabric in. The cut out area is 1/2" smaller than the finished size of the signing area of your block and would be the size of your writing area. On the inside of the file, you glue a piece of fine grit sandpaper the same size as your block to place the fabric on so that it doesn't slip while it's being written on. So, if the signing area of your block is 4" square, the cut out on the front of the folder would be 3-1/2" square. Then trace that onto the inside of the file folder and cut a piece of sandpaper 4-1/2" square, and glue it over the traced square . You can make several of these so that more than one person can be signing a block at a time. I wrote directions on the folder and hope you can read them.

How about taking a travel iron with you and iron the pieces of freezer paper on when you get to your detination

Freezer Paper is made with wax, not plastic.
My freezer paper is OLD. It doesn't work.
mckwilter has a very good lesson on making the frame for signing. (Post 37) The guest opens the folder, puts his fabric on the sandpaper background, closes the front of the folder and then writes what he wants. He takes his fabric out and the next guest puts her fabric into the folder. It works.

The kind I use is made with plastic (Reynolds brand). See this Walmart listing:

I have waxed paper also, but that does not stick to fabric. I can stick waxed paper to itself with a hot iron (useful when I need a large sheet of tracing paper), but not to fabric.
