Marking

I loathe marking even more than I loathe cutting, and that’s a lot! I used to not mark anything and just fudge it (“ooo, it looks like the dart would go here”). Now I do take the trouble to thread trace, but it’s so much work! And often I don’t want to use a fabric pencil if my fabric is at all sheer, as I worry it will show through.

How do you mark your fabric? Do you have any good tips that will make my life easier?
