I don’t know about you, but I hate taking time to transfer pattern markings onto fabric! I also live in a very rural area where I can’t just run to the fabric store if I need a special pen or tool and don’t happen to have one in my stash. (Unless I want to make a 200-plus mile round trip, that is!)
So today, I’m taking just a minute to show you my lazy way of doing it. This may not work in every situation, but for simple markings, it does the trick … no special tools or marking utensils needed!
