I use tissue paper. If I am doing something relatively easy or simple I just trace it. I find regular printer paper too thick and I'm too cheap to buy special paper.

There is no hard pattern in numbers:))Once you 'get it'...you will totally go crazy!!:))Storms at a sea...no problem:))LOL

Elle---I've never heard of a Marmite! We have Vermits..which can be any lower to the ground critter:))The name would make me think it is an animal and one that I wouldn't want to bite:))Skeat

teehee. It's made from yeast, Skeat, so I guess it qualifies as a critter of sorts. :shock: Thanks for the link to the older thread!!

LOL!:))

Oh Skeat you make me laugh. Marmite it black stuff (yuk) made from yeast which loads of people spread on toast etc. (double yuk) Its very high in vitamin B so they tell me, good for keeping the mosquitos at bay. Guess who gets bitten cause I hate the stuff.

Good luck with the Paper Piecing. Your like me I never try anything easy, I have got to challenge myself all the time.

Have you heard of Vegemite, the australian version??? Its a beef yeast spread used to flavour stews or spread on bread/toast :D

So, if I eat alot of homemade yeast breads the mosquitos won't bite ?:0)Anohter reason to eat it!:))I hate to tell you all...I'd try it...it sounds interesting and good:))Skeat

Skeat, If you want I can send you a trial........and the best of luck matey
