I tried the press & seal on a practice square the other day & it did not pull on the stitches!! It stretched till it gave & the stitches stayed.

I wanted to say how wonderful this board is that we can bounce all these ideas around. :thumbup:

Thanks for the tip...I'll try it on a practice piece. (using Freezer Paper)

I use the press and seal plastic wrap too, works great and removes with no problems.

I use tracing paper and fine point sharpies. The tracing paper is a little expensive but a little goes a long way if you are careful how you use it.

This looks like Golden Threads paper to me. It comes off easily after you sew through it.

I use that type of paper on knitted fabric I think. I iron it on, stitch and then peel it off and it works very well.

I love this idea!! How easy! I tried Press N Seal - tearing it off pulled the stitches....maybe a little perforating would help with that, too.

A big thank you to all who shared their wonderful ideas and thoughs. Have never machine quilted but I do believe I could do it now after all these great tips.

And the freezer paper I use is white that looks a bit transparent!

I'm going to try this! Thanks for the info.

I have also traced onto press n seal. It is like saran wrap but tacky. It sticks to most anything and is repositionable. You can see through it and it tears out very easily. Ann in TN[/quote]
