I agree, it's a real pain. I don't draw them on paper though. I draw the pieces onto posterboard. Then all I have to do is lay the piece on the fabric and draw around it. I've done that with clothing patterns that I make over and over again too. For clothing patterns, I glue the tissue paper pattern to the posterboard. I figure if I have to draw it out anyway, I may as well make it destroy-proof. The other great thing about posterboard is NO PINNING!
