Wow! Never would have thought of that. What a great idea. Virg

You can also copy the pattern onto pages from a phone book. It tears off much easier than a heavier paper.

Thanks for asking and to all of you who gave so much good advice!!!!!

Use glad press and seal, it works good and stays put and is easy to tear off too.

:thumbup: Thanks for a great tip!

What a great idea. I hand quilt my projects because machine quilting has always intimidated me, but using tissue paper as a guide sounds easy. I'll try it on my next small project!

I use regular printer paper for my quilting and it works quite nicely. However, If you have very small areas, you might have some paper scraps caught in the corners. But that too will pass!

Great Idea!!!! Thanks

When you are ready to remove the paper, you can score the paper right next to the stitching with a needle or your seam ripper (back side) to remove the places that do no tear off easily. I do this with my paper piecing items.

I heard that the Glad Press N Seal is good for that too!
