I use a modified Karen Kay Buckley method - I use double freezer paper - iron to fabric - cut out with a 1/4 or 1/8 seam allowance - paint on magic sizing or best press on the seam allowance then iron the edge down ( drys the magic sizing) then remove the freezer paper and the fabric keeps it shape. KK Buckley use templar which last for ever but doesn't stick to the fabric - the other tip I have if using her method is get a needle nose tweezer a real fingar saver when using an iron.
