Don't cut your patterns! Trace them with this sewable pattern paper. Sew it and try it on before cutting your expensive fabric. Use it to make a durable master pattern. Strong, see through & drapably soft. Rolls are 29" wide and 30 ft. long.
You can see through it, so all you have to do is lay it over the pattern, and then trace over the size that you need with a marker or pen. You can even sew this tracing paper into a model garment to get your fit just right before you sew your pattern up in more expensive fabric.

European Dressmakers Use This Paper To Make Their Couture "Muslins".
 Doesn't tear like tissue paper does.

When do I use Swedish Tracing Paper?

1) Creating New Patterns and Designs: I draw my new pattern idea directly onto the Swedish Tracing Paper with a pencil.  I can stitch up a sample directly from the paper and play with the shapes before ever moving to fabric.

2) Tracing Sewing Patterns I’ve purchased: When I want to sew a specific size but want the option of using the other sizes later, I’ll trace it.  Although this takes extra time, it’s great when you want to save your pattern OR for cutting challenging fabrics.  First, I trace the pattern onto the Swedish Tracing Paper.  When I cut out the pattern, I leave a 1/2″ margin around the pattern.  That way, when I go to pin the pattern to my fabric and cut it out, I can cut through both the paper and the fabric at the same time.  I consider this a total luxury, because it makes cutting so much easier. As many of you know, good sewing begins with good cutting.  There is nothing more frustrating than trying to stitch neat seams when the edge of your fabric is a hot mess.
