7.On a shape that has been cut out. Using your hole punch, punch a hole on the corners of the inside line.
If you are making holes without the hole punch Place the plastic on a Cork board or Styrofoam or something that will absorb the punch. Your cutting mat would work in a pinch.
Place the template down and steady and awl or steak knife on on the corner of the line and tap with a hammer.
If you do it this way PLEASE PLEASE be careful. It is easy to hurt yourself.

8. Now your templates are cut out and ready!

Next up how to get them on the fabric
Once you have your fabric chosen lay it out on the table the back side facing you. Right side down.

9. Please your plastic template on the fabric. When doing this think about what way the pattern is going and if the template is straight on the grain.
