You might be able to reuse it if you're careful. <br />2)There are no rules, pencil, chalk, graphite will work to mark the fabric. If you use pen, you will want to cut the ink away. <br />3)There is only a wrong side if you don't like it. Sometimes when we turn things over, or upside down, they look better.Colleen MacKinnon; Penny Rugs and Morehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01823396382633982306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713302929074247099.post-22098610659991036162013-07-11T10:03:48.938-07:002013-07-11T10:03:48.938-07:00Hello, I'm trying to self teach myself how to ...Hello, I'm trying to self teach myself how to do a Penny Rug. I came across your site and it's full of information that is helping me. <br />I'm wondering about the freezer paper, do you iron the paper onto the felt or do you just let it lay on the felt without attaching it? I jus attempted my first penny and posted it on FB. But I made my template out of a pizza box and laid it on the felt and used an ink pen to trace around it. Is that ok or no? Plus is there a right side and wrong side to the felt, if so which is which? <br />Thanks again for your site as I stated earlier it's full of information. <br />Pam Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713302929074247099.post-25314677267063570932013-04-10T11:58:44.758-07:002013-04-10T11:58:44.758-07:00If your grocery store doesn't have it in the a...If your grocery store doesn't have it in the aluminum foil and plastic bags section, try a butcher. Also check into quilting shops. Quilt shops carry a quilter's version of transfer paper that is more expensive. I can also ship you some pieces.

They are so much easier than the freezer paper method plus for good primitive style rugs you need 'not so perfect' circles'. I can do this with your templates although I find myself cutting more 'perfect' circles than primitive ones.. they are so easy to use. <BR/>cee<BR/>EarlyStylePennyRugsCee Rafusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14701199411305352283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8713302929074247099.post-79384732436411010372008-10-15T06:14:00.000-07:002008-10-15T06:14:00.000-07:00great tips!! i am loving the templates.great tips!! i am loving the templates.simple~needshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06749598136132967298noreply@blogger.com
