Well, I was good and waited a day to try peeling my work from the class on Thursday with Ana Buzzalino. It came up pretty easily, except for a couple places along the edges. I just used the tip of a pair of sharp scissors to pry it off the freezer paper.
I was surprised at how much matte medium this used up. This was a new container when I started the class, and I used a bit more than a third of it.
It peeled up quickly once the edges were all started successfully. There were some bits of the Sharpie writing left behind on the freezer paper.
This one turned out to be so yellow because I'd written with an almost highlighter yellow marker that hadn't fully dried before I applied the matte medium in class.
The freezer paper is re-usable for this process as long as it is still shiny (so it will release). But the marks left behind by the first round of writing may be transferred in the second attempt.
Here's how the four pieces look up on the white design wall. I'm glad I used different types of sheers to try out how they look, it really is startling in a way. Now to try and figure out how to use these somehow in a quilt!
