    Default Where can i get "fundation" for paper piecing?

    I am looking for an internet site from which to order a package of this stuff. One leaves it in the paper piecing and it lends stability. Thanks for your help!

    I believe SoftExpressions.com carries it. So does Amazon.

    Soft and Stable is another brand that washes and stays in.

    I think Ricky Tims from www.thequiltshow.com has a product called Stable Stuff that you leave in.

    I use Pellon 830. I buy it by the yard, cut it in the size blocks I need. It is lightweight but stable, easy to work with and not too expensive on sale. You can get it at the chain stores like Hancocks, Joanne's and Hobby Lobby.

    the Soft and Stable says it's foam doesn't it? I'm not really sure of using that myself.

    Thank You, DebraK....that is where I had gotten it before, but I couldn't remember the name of the site......I did look up the Soft and Stable and it looks interesting, too, but I couldn't get into the site to see how much and how much the shipping was. I also found it at Joann's online. It is on sale, but with the shipping, not so much.....Unfortunately, I do look at the shipping anymore. Sometimes, it's just ridiculous!

    Back when I started doing PP I bought some 25% rag velum from Office Max online. It went through the printer without any problems. The cost was low and I have a whole lot left for probably years to come.
    I have also used the larger deli type paper from Costco when I was out of state. It is thinner than the rag velum. I never tried it with the printer though.

    Opps I'm sorry I got the name mixed up. It's Ricky Tim's Stable Stuff not Soft and Stable. That's a whole other something. LOL
