Iron freezer paper to a copy of the page then cut it out..gives stability.. just like pal said.

Any suggestions on what to use thats see thru so I can trace it?

Cover the pattern with wax paper and trace with a fine point marker....then pin to your fabric and cut out your pattern.

Typing paper works good. All you have to do is with a soft pencile trace what you want to transfer then turn it over and retrace and the pattern will transfer onto whatever you want to make a templet.
really any thin paper would work.
