Best Answer

After cutting out the fabric pieces place the chalky side of the tracing paper facing down on the wrong side of the fabric with the pattern piece on top pinned correctly. Then use a tracing wheel slowly running it over the markings you are tracing. Lift a corner to check markings have transferred if not try again applying a gentle force.
