Although 17lb vellum is the best paper for the projects, it can be difficult to find in stores. And yes, it must be 17lb.  Anything heavier is too thick and brittle.  

 

• Since 17lb vellum is rarely sold in stores, be prepared to order it online.

​

• 17lb vellum goes through the printer the same as copy paper.   When printing, set your copier to "Best" quality printing.

​​

• Please be sure to order your paper early so that you get it in time for the workshop.

Here are some brands and alternatives to google:
 

•  Simple Foundations Translucent Vellum Paper

​

• Jam 17lb Vellum 

​

• June Taylor "Perfect Piecing" Transparent, Blank Quilt Block Foundation Sheets - Amazon  These sheets work as well as vellum and might be available at a local Joann Fabrics.  Also they are the most economical.  But, depending on your printer, you might need to feed the sheets one at a time.
