ReynoldsFreezer Paper, Plastic Coated, 50 Sq Ft - White

Looking for this for sewing and craft. Expensive, but does the job.

I read online that you can use this paper to transfer designs to cloth. I wanted the paper to stick firmly to my cloth so that I could trace a design for embroidery. I was a little worried because when I read about this technique online, it always said 'waxed paper' and this is plastic coated. But it worked a treat. I was not able to print directly on the paper because I have the wrong kind of printer (my printer would be too hot). So I traced my design onto the freezer paper and then ironed the freezer paper to my cloth and it was easy to trace the design onto the cloth without the cloth shifting or the heat-erase pen dragging the cloth. This was a big improvement over my previous technique of trying to just tape the paper with the design to the cloth, because that way, the cloth always shifted and the pen dragged making a less accurate design for me to embroider. For people who want this paper to iron onto cloth, it works exactly as you want: sticks securely, peels off easily and I could not detect any residue from the plastic transferring to my cloth. Since I don't use freezer paper to freeze food, three rolls will probably last me a lifetime. Completely satisfied with the order and the product.

Great for parchwork and EEP!

I bought this freezer paper not for its use as freezer paper, but to transfer pattern pieces onto so that it makes cutting out fabric for corset making that bit more accurate. Using pins to secure pattern pieces can allow it to shift a little on the fabric when being pinned and cut which can be fine for larger garments where ease is added, but not good at all for garments which require total accuracy like corsets with their negative ease (in the form of waist reduction). Due to the number of seams a corset usually has, being even a small amount out on each seam can result in a garment an inch or more too big/small which is not at all ideal in a garment with no give/stretch.The freezer paper is brilliant. Simply trace the pattern pieces onto the paper side, and then place the waxy side onto the fabric. Run an iron (at the correct temperature for the fabric if lower than recommended on the freezer paper packet) over the paper and it melts the waxy side just enough to lightly grip the fabric fibres as it cools down again. Then you just cut the pattern piece out and leave the paper on until you are ready to sew the seams. Keeping the paper on helps prevent those pesky frays you get at the cut edge when the fabric is piled up waiting to be sewn. It is simple to peel the paper off when needed and some people have found that they are able to utilise the same piece multiple times (though I have yet to try this myself, but have kept the pattern pieces just in case I need to repeat that particular corset pattern).From what others and myself have found, there is little to no residue left on the fabric itself (though as always you should apply it to the "wrong" side of the fabric just in case).

Good product

Really liked this product. Saw an idea on Pinterest. Used it for craft work. I would send photos but I don't know how to do it. My granddaughters and I drew a shape on the paper. I ironed the shiny side down on the front of a t -shirt and then they made marks with fabric pens . Next, they peeled off the stencil and the shape was revealed .I then ironed over the design using baking parchment with a dry iron setting. Also washed them in the washing machine. It worked!! We were so impressed and my granddaughters were very pleased with their "designer " t-shirts . I have only used it for craft work, I can highly recommend it for this activity.

As with almost everyone else I bought this for craft work, and it's absolutely ideal. For the uninitiated, it is as transparent as greaseproof paper, but with a thin plastic layer on one side only. Draw your design on the opposite side, cut it out, then iron the resultant stencil onto a flat t-shirt with a hot iron for about 10-15 seconds.You will then find the paper is completely (but temporarily) ironed on, and you can paint the design on with acrylic paints, safely without going over the lines. Add as many coats as you require, then when dry simply peel the paper off. You can still iron over the stencil to fix each coat of paint without damaging the paper at all. No residue on the fabric whatsoever, since all it does is soften the plastic coating, not melt it. So long as you don't tear the paper, you can re-use the stencil as many times as you want.This is a fantastic product and worth every penny. Oh and you can apparently wrap food for the freezer with it too....

We started using freezer paper for crafting in around 2021! It's a really good product, especially for fabric crafts and the waxy top coat means you can also line the table with it when painting, sticking or gluing on embellishments for easy clean up. Super for cutting out intricate or small designs for pattern pieces. My wife uses these for making barbie doll outfits and similar. Especially when using felt, ironing the paper to the felt so you can cut around it very easily and then peel it off. I hope that freezer paper makes it super easy for everyone else too, I don't know how we ever managed without it! Must Buy for Crafters.
