What is this notion used for? Tracing paper

Did you get your money's worth after the purchase? I sure did! I bought this tracing paper by the roll...42"x20 yards. I wanted the wider width...I really didn't like having to tape together the tissue paper I was using to get the length & width needed to trace my patterns!

Is this notion easily available? I'm not sure...I bought mine from Curry's Art Store (online) I didn't like paying for shipping but, So glad I have this 20 yard roll of tracing paper...it will last a long time! It is very good quality paper.

Would you recommend it to others? I do recommend this paper, I have many multi-sized patterns that require you to trace the size you need...Jalie, Kwik Sew, Lingerie Secrets... the 42' width is perfect..no more taped together pattern pieces : )

I'd never heard of this brand of tracing paper, but will have to searh the web for it. Anything with the name Riley in it, has got to be good. Our Maine Coon cat is named Riley! And he's a BIG sweetheart! TFS! Annette

I checked the Curry's website to describe this paper..."Borden & Riley's #41 tracing paper is highly transparent and rated premium quality.This medium weight (25lb) tracing paper is ideal for most tracing and sketching applications and proves so durable that it takes repeated erasures without ghosting" When I talked to the sales person.... she told me that it is the paper that one of the Fashion Design School's( Toronto) use in their classroom. Hope this helps to describe the paper!
