Template question
When I come across a pattern with straight edge templates, I am not sure if I am going about this correctly. My first attempt was to duplicate the pattern on Mylar and proceeded to cut the fabric using a rotary cutter and the mylar template. Well I ended up trimming the template in that process. Then I used the template to trace on the fabric and cut with scissors following the lines I drew on the fabric. O how time consuming. I am welcoming suggestions on using templates and wondering what is the best way to cut my fabric using a template.
