Pattern paper

[msmemory_archive]

I used to have a roll of white paper, about the weight of gift wrap, with little dots at exactly one-inch intervals. It was for making or copying sewing patterns, and eventually I used it all up. Fabric Place claims not to have such a beast. (Clerks disagree on whether they ever carried such a thing.) I'll try JoAnn's on my way home from work, but they don't have a good track record lately.

Anybody out there recognize this, and have a suggestion where I can replace it?

EDIT: I found grid-marked interfacing at JoAnn's, which I can use this week for the pattern I need to make. I'll probably order some of the paper pointed out by cat9, below; anyone wanting to join the order let me know After Pennsic.

Also JoAnn's had linen - more linen than Fabric Place has had all season. Even black.

Sadly, no, but if you find some I'd like to know. I've been using rolls of brown "craft paper" which is both the wrong thickness and a real pain in the butt.

Well, you can order it from here:

(at the bottom of the page)
but it's not cheap...I don't know anyplace that sells it by the roll. Of course, I live in the middle of Vermont, so there may well be someone else who does know where to find some :)

(I was just wandering through Jack's friends page...don't mind me...)

I don't mind you :) Feel free to visit!

Oooh, spiffy! They do sell it by the roll. I wonder how many yards per roll? (I'm sure I could resell it, like folks who buy rattan by the bundle because they need two pieces.)

Apparently if you go to this other page, they tell you!
(Too...tired...to...click. Must be all that late night Pennsic prep.)

And just to confirm your memory, I have some pattern paper as you describe it that I got last year at Fabric Place.
