there are dozens (or hundreds) of ways to mark you quilting design...some people use stencils and pounce pads, some people use pencils, some use special markers made for this, there are laser pointers to fasten to the machine and follow the pattern with the light; you can use glad cling wrap, draw your design on it, stretch it across the quilt top and quilt, of course any where you are stitching through something you will have alot of picking out later.
no matter what method you choose to mark your design it takes LOTS OF PRACTICE before you will successfully 'quilt' with your machine. start with something small and practice your design before starting on your quilt. there are lots of good videos to watch. do a search for machine quilting :thumbup:
