ROYLSOV GW012503 Royal 1016mm x 20m 90gsm Sovereign Natural Tracing Paper,white

This is thick, sturdy tracing paper. It’s nothing like the flimsy, floppy, tissue thin stuff the sewing shops sell. It comes rolled up in a sturdy tube. It’s wide enough to trace A0 sewing patterns and it’s easy to see the lines through the paper. The surface is smooth so the pencil glides over the lines I’m tracing. The paper is thick so there’s no need to worry about the pencil puncturing it. It rolls and folds easily. It’s absolutely perfect for tracing off sewing patterns and while £20 may seem like a lot, I’ve found it to be an absolute bargain. I no longer hesitate to trace patterns - it’s so much easier than mucking about with the tissue paper stuff that most people use.

I have ordered this roll several times now and I have been extremely happy each time. I use it for large scale drawings and art projects, whether it's for exhibition work or just drawing in my studio, so I need a strong paper that will not tear when hung up on a wall or displayed in an exhibition for lengths of time, but also translucent; this paper is both! It has a wonderful even translucency, and is very crisp and smooth and almost with a plasticy feel, but not in a way that makes it feels cheap but in the fact that it is very high quality drafting paper.It comes in a strong sturdy, tube so there is no risk of it being damaged when not in use, and it is extremely good value when you get 20 metres of really high quality paper for such a low price.

I bought this for dressmaking after using the more traditional tissue tracing paper. When it arrived in a fairly narrow roll I was a bit disappointed thinking the whole palaver of cutting and taping even before starting to trace would quickly wear thin. From first use I was converted. It cuts cleanly and tapes together securely to be more accurate and less wasteful but more important more manoeuvrable. It manipulates really well when making pattern adjustments and is really durable. I have a few go-to patterns and where tissue would have disintegrated through pinning and cutting, I’m able to re-use over and over. Just reordered and can’t see me using anything else in the future.

The very first part of the roll was badly damaged when it arrived but it's a great weight and quality to use.

Like a fool I had bought tracing paper from the stationers up until now - well, no more! This paper has the ideal weight, finish and width to handle all but the hugest of pattern pieces, and will be all I use from now on for my sewing pattern needs.

It's usable, but the end of the roll had come off in transit, and the tracing paper was not contained in the cardboard tube. I had to undo half the roll to manage to roll it up tightly enough to fit back into the tube.

I need a large quantity of translucent paper for an art installation. This is very good quality paper and very reasonably priced. Prompt delivery in robust packaging

I love this paper. I use it to trace sewing patterns. It is perfect for that, as I'm sure many other tracing activities. As for my use as sewing pattern tracing paper, its great because, on a low setting, it can be ironed flat after its been either rolled up or folded for storage. It is so transparent that it makes tracing sewing pattern pieces a joyful task as well as creating accurate tracings. The extra wide roll is great again for tracing large sewing patterns and it lasts for ages with the 20m on the roll. Highly recommend.
