I got mine from LciPaper. It was around $50 when it was shipped. But that was for a ream of 500. It was 17lb weight.

They also have a 29lb weight as well that's more expensive.

It works wonderful in my laser printer. I'm very pleased with it.

some quilt shops carry it...you can usually find it in craft/hobby stores, like Michaels, joannes, hobby lobby, or on line at places like Clotilde's and Nancy's notions....and of course the queen of paper piecing Carol Doak has all the supplies you need on her web site :thumbup:

If you're not putting it through the copier, the tracing paper is cheaper.
Nancy's Notions used to have a 100 page pack for $10 that I would buy at shows - it was always the best deal around.
ah, I see they still sell them online:

That's the best deal...but then there's shipping and waiting. ;-)
