I found a roll of 6" paper at the thrift shop for 50cents. I did a bit of the piecing just to remind myself what I bought it for.
The shop said that they know there were a couple of other rolls of that paper that weren't sealed. She was going to put it aside for me, for the next time I'm in the area.

This is stunning. I have started a shoe box with cut strips as suggested. That is going well. I am now definitely adding a roll of till tape and going to use my bags of scraps to make a long 'snake'. This will be fun when i am BETWEEN projects.
Thanks for sharing.
I have fallen in LOVE with your 2 quilts.

Great idea. Yesterday my girlfriend bought to our quilt group two rolls of adding machine tape for all of us. She told us that she will send the tutorial which i just viewed and I am amazed at all of the possibilities...they are endless. When she gave them to us, I did not imagine this many quilts with just a roll of adding machine tape. What a creative idea for paper piecing. I think that quilters should run this country. Now, I believe that I can do anything thanks to my quilting friend who brought this idea to me and my cyberfriend for putting this idea out there for her to find. Now I must get to work. Thanks girlfriends, you are the bestest.
