This is my Question of the Day - "How do you transfer your most used patterns?"
Do you use tissue paper? Or the pattern paper with the letter and numbers? Oak tag paper like professional pattern makers? Or do you fuse your paper patterns to lightweight fusible interfacing?

I would really like to know because my TNT dress pattern, pants pattern, skirt and a jacket or two really need to be transferred again to better paper. But I'm wondering if maybe it isn't time to transfer those patterns to oak tag paper and stop remaking them every couple of years.
So I'm soliciting opinions, answers, suggestions, etc. I think maybe it's time for the basic ones not to be folded anymore but along with that comes storage issues. How to store them? Where to store them? Because the present storage system I have is working pretty well.
I'm really interested and hope that you'll share what you do in the comments!
...as always more later!
