Also, if it’s hard to tell which is the right side of your fabric, mark either the right or wrong side of each fabric piece with a bit of low-tack tape. This is so you won’t accidentally reverse a fabric piece and end up with “two left sides” to your item.

Learn to Sew Lesson #8: Mark Your Fabric Pieces
|
You’ve probably noticed that your pattern pieces
have all these marks and symbols on them. These
symbols indicate things such as where to place
pockets and buttonholes, where to sew a line of
stitching, or where to match fabric pieces.
Therefore, it's important to transfer these marks
and symbols to your fabric pieces before you start
to sew. This can be done with special fabric chalks
or pens, fabric transfer paper, needle and thread,
or even a bar of soap.
Don’t unpin your pattern pieces from your fabric
until you’ve transferred these marks to your fabric.
