Chriss - paper piecing is kind of fun, but pulling the paper off after is a royal pain in the arse!! Any tricks??
SFQ and MaryEllen I really hope you are having fun with your holly jolly charms (I'm jealous, can you tell??), I went to 4 different LQS's and none of them had any left, 1 LQS said she would try to get some for me, we will see, maybe they will get here in time for next year, then I will want something else...lol

Little Bit, I have been told that you can wet the paper and it will peel off easier, but it doesn't come out if the stitches really well.
I turn my stich length so that I can have a lot of stitches per inch... on my machine it is 1.8... it seems to preforrate ( not sure how to spell that) the paper more and makes it a bit easier to peel off.... the more holes in the paper the easier it seems to come out of the stitches....

Susanna,
Now, first of all I didn't say FART... I said f**t.... second of all, it isn't a bad word, it's just a little stinky....

Chriss I used a 1.5 stitch, and I steamed it with the iron thinking that it would help, guess I just need to suck it up and be patient with it

LB, you could wet it really well and then put it in the dryer and maybe the lint trap would catch most of it??? I don't have any other suggestions... maybe someone else has an idea ot two for you
