This is a method of marking and transferring key points, particularly darts, tucks, and seam lines, from a paper pattern onto fabric – usually a double layer. It’s best to use a double thickness of thread and in a colour that will show up on the fabric, although I wouldn’t advise using a dark thread on light fabric as it will leave fibres on your cloth that may not come out! When marking a crowded area, use different colours of thread – for tucks that are close together or overlap, for example. It will be easier to see individual tucks if a different colour is used for each one.
