Review on πŸ“„ Wausau 81348 Exact Vellum Bristol, 8.5 x 11 Inches, Grey, Pack of 250 Sheets (81348) by Barbara Simmons

Large Box of Hex English Staples

I purchased this paper to make paper parts for English staples. I like that it's heavier than regular paper but not as heavy as regular card stock so it sews up nicely. The usual thicker cardboard was too heavy and difficult for the needle. The price was really great. I would recommend this to others making their own English paper sewing templates. Updated: 06/28/15. I love it when you only sew hexagons. However, for more complex designs with other shapes, I found it would be a bit stiff for this purpose. See my review of Neenah Exact Vellum Bristol, 67 lbs, 8.5 x 11 in, 250 sheets, White, Brightness 94. This product is also available here at Revain. This paper is exactly the same weight as pre-cut papers that you can buy online. While this is a great cardstock for creating simple hexagonal foam flowers, I prefer a different one for more intricate foam designs.
