    Freezer Paper v Paper Piecing Paper

    Well I've used an equal amount of both papers and whilst they both have their attributes, I have to say that I still prefer using the Paper Piecing Paper. Personally I find it quicker, more accurate and an easier ironing process. If specific paper is used (not printer paper), tearing out takes no time at all. I realise I might be a lone voice but interested if others have made the comparison.

    It is good to try various options to see which you prefer. I am more accurate with regular paper piecing on newsprint, with small stitches. But prefer the speed and use of freezer paper multiple times with freezer paper. Each has its purpose. Glad you are happy with your choice.

      I We t back to using the papers too. I also find it more accurate and I am able to really get into a smooth rhythm with the papers.
