The ironing trick works! I had a whole wooden chest of upholstery samples I couldn't use because of the paper and they are all paper-free now! Time to make some dollhouse furnishings, pillows, and quilts. :)

I have been given tons of fabric samples too. Removing the paper backing is very easy with a hot (old) iron. Set the iron on very hot and iron on the paper backing. After one or two seconds: peal of the paper. Repeat when required. Good Luck Desiree (from the Netherlands)
