Doug 57 wrote this in another thread, so i asked her where she got it : it was in 'quilting peeps' hope she doesnt mind me copying it, it sounds really handy stuff.

But have a look at something called Golden Threads quilting paper..it comes on a roll. It's fabulous..you draw up a continuous quilting design on it [say the length of your quilt] Place the paper over several more pieces and use an old needle on your machine to run over the pattern [lower the feed dogs, put an open toed foot or embroidery foot on ], this will give you 'practise' for the actual quilting but also punch little holes through all the papers to save you drawing on each one! Then pin it to your quilt, pop a new needle in your machine, fill the bobbins, thread it up, and start quilting over the lines or holes. The paper tears away very easily.

So i got this : # 261446694 that will be easier for some stencils i have :)

Thanks for baking tis yummy as usual :)
Lump is slowly going down .... awww Stan did have some ice thanks Twilight :) yay your broadbands back thankgoodness.

http://images.trademe.co.nz/photoserver/4/115029604_full.jpg This is the Christmas Tram me and Hubby rode yesterday.
Took Miss 3 in today, had $2 fried rice for lunch (best food EVER) under the trees listening to some live music (miss 3 clapping at the end of each song), then rode the tram with her, on top deck going through the City Mall passed a brass band playing Christmas tunes. Stopped to look at the big animated Christmas story in the Ballentynes windows, and Liv was enthralled by the Irish dancers. Mini donuts for pudding. Hmmm that reminds me i better go wake her up for dinner!!
