Newspapers publishers will sell you what is left on a roll of newsprint very cheaply and it is enough to last several lifetimes.

I use tissue paper and tracing paper, and what ever I find in the house I can use, as I can't even afford a quilting template. God bless. Penny

Me too. There are sheets in packages of about 6 and they have grids in red also.
Does Hancock or Joanns carry these? How expensive?
I have seen them at Hancocks.

I use the newsprint also because there is no ink to worry about. I also tape this to the side of my metal shed outside to spray baste. Works like a charm.
