I researched what others had used, and found that newsprint is supposed to tear much easier. I purchased 500 sheets of white newsprint from Amazon for about $10 and that included shipping! The reviewers said that it was the same as those expensive papers you can buy at the quilt shops and at a fraction of the cost. I have not sewn with it yet, but for $10 I figured it was worth a try. If you want to give me a day or so, I will give this a test run and post my results. :-)
