I was just on the Staples website and they have 3" tape for $1.59 a role. That wasn't as bad as having to buy 50 rolls of it which is what I found on Amazon.

Could you use muslin or a lightweight stabilizer? Then you wouldn't have to remove it. If not why?

what an awesome idea... Sue, thank you for posting and sharing.

I really love this but I'm new to quilting. Can I ask why the machine paper is used. It this considered paper piecing? If so, when do you tear the paper off??

Just go to an office supply store in your area - the ones that used to sell copiers, cash registers, adding machines, typewriters, etc. There should be one around somewhere. I buy old paper tape rolls that have yellowed for about 25¢ apiece. Let your fingers do your walking - take your phone book and look up office supply stores - mom & pops stores are best. Good luck.

Awwww, htat is so easy, why did I not think of it. It would have been a lot of use.

Great idea - can we see some of the quilts you used this in........... or have you posted and I just didn't see them???

If you go to your local newspaper office you can get sheets or rolls of news print un-used and cut into strips. that is what I have done and it comes of nicely after sewing the strips. Food for thought......

Wow! that is a great idea, thanks

looks like a great method,thanks for sharing
