For string quilts I take the pages from old phone books & cut them to the size of the block I am making. The paper is easy to tear away & its free. For more tedious paper piecing projects I like to use white tissue paper. I buy it at the Dollar Store from the gift wrap section. Its time consuming to trace onto the paper.....but so easy to see through so that you aren't guessing at or missing sewing lines. It is sturdier than you would think. When it's time to tear the paper away there is very little tugging on your stitches it comes off easily.

I ordered a couple patterns from the Designers' Workshop and they came with freezer paper patterns.never thought that I would like working with it but it has definitely changed my mind. Absolutely love the finished project……...

I am using my "MEDICARE" mailing. Nice soft paper.

I like vellum also.

Ditto. Vellum and the fold-and-stitch method. I am so over tearing the paper off.

I use A4 sheets of tracing paper. My printer likes it as long as I don't use fast draft setting and it means that the underside is visible for fabric placing.

I love lightweight vellum, goes thru printer, easy to see through, if you make a mistake it holds up but tears away easily. I have tried everything and this works the best for me

Being a smarty I wanted to say none because I am not very fond of paper piecing. It has always been very hard for me. Apparently there is a newer method where you fold back at the seam so you don't tear off the paper. Does anyone know if this was in a book or was a tutorial? I have tried stitching the block out through a pile of paper with out thread so the paper comes off more easily instead of using a copier to make your patterns.
