I use notches, too. I learned this in a "sewing curves" class I took....now I do it whenever needed...

I use a frixion pen and mark in the seam allowances. Disappears when I press. I have never had it reappear; but, if it did, it wouldn't matter since it is in the seam.

The simple things are the farthest from the brain sometimes. We concentrate too hard to think of the simple things. Thanks for reminding us.
