As sometimes when I mark to the floor than I lay it flat on the table the markings are up and down and I won't be sure which are the good marking or not.

I really enjoy watching you & your pace of walking through the instructions. I’ve seen some before that I won’t even watch because they just speak too quickly. Another way that I do my alterations is to have my customer wear the garment on inside out so as you mark, you won’t have to transfer to the inside because you’re already have it done on the inside of the garment. Thank you again for excellent instructions.
