I also use freezer paper for greometric shapes when quilting in plain blocks, easy to quilt around and then peel off and reset on another blocks...faster than marking designs. Have fun with it.

In a similar note, has anyone tried Glad Press n Seal? Have seen some talk about it, but it just looks too easy to be true. For quilting designs, that is, not for appliqué shapes.

I do this as well and I buy big rolls of freezer paper which I cut to the size I want for my photo printer, you can run all kinds of fabric type stuff through your printer this way, for instance angelina fiber.

I am not sure how the others do it..and since I am a beginner this is what I do..I put the freezer paper shiny side down onto the back(wrong side) of the fabric..Cut out the shape, remove the paper and than sew it onto the main block that I am doing..I look forward to seeing how everyone else is doing it..especially since I am having a very hard time getting the fabric seams turned under..I know that I am doing something wrong, just got to figure it out 
I am doing a butterfly and flower quilt using the freezer paper and so far so good with the cut out patterns..They are nice and stiff and easy to work with..
