    Lovely video. Clear and detailed instructions. Patterns from the 1940's had no lines and a basic, how to booklet was sold separately. Tracing and adding marks on the NEW pattern will be a great help. Thank you.

    I like this video. Thank you for your post. I buy several rolls of Scotch removable tape for taping my pattern pieces to a table. I still have to be a little careful when I pull it off of the pattern after I finish tracing, but I find it is effective. I also bought a tape dispenser that clips onto the table. This dispenser allows me to pull off tape with one hand, while holding the pattern down on the table. I can also use the removable tape to tape down my tracing paper (helpful when the paper isn't lying flat. Just a thought.

    Perfect timing.......I'm waiting for my order of tracing paper as we speak! 😄 I've never traced before so this was very helpful. 👍🏼 I don't have vintage patterns but will use it to trace some Burda patterns out of the magazine and some favorites that I know I will reuse.

    Hi, great video. What tracing paper do you use? The one I have is nice an£ thick but really quite hard to see through ☹️

      Catherine Johnson use parchment paper from your local big box store. It’s infinitely cheaper, easier to use, and has enough weight so you can work without the anxiety of a tear.

    Thank you!! Can you iron tracing paper if it has been folded?

      Great question, I don't see why not. Just make sure the pen you've used doesn't do anything weird with the heat :)

    Such great tips! Had never thought to iron a pattern. Makes me think, if you wanted to really protect & reinforce it, could you actually iron the pattern to some interfacing?

      For vintage & especially rare ones, I'd return them to the pattern packet, as is, without doing anything more to them. Leave them as close to "original", as you can, since you shouldn't be using them anymore. Retain the collector and historical value.
      If you really like a particular pattern & plan to make a number of versions of it, apply your interfacing to your traced pattern, instead. That's now the one that needs protection & reinforcement, as you'll be using it multiple times.
      Hope these thoughts are useful.

      Lovely tutorial. I use good old fashioned baking paper. Jane Ashers or similar from the £1 shop. Its brilliant. Its a good quality and you can see through it to trace off patterns xx
