A marking template comprising a substantially rectangular planar body portion having a central aperture and a plurality of sets of apertures in the body portion, each set of apertures located a predetermined distance from the central aperture characterized in that an aperture of each set is provided in each of the four inter-cardinal directions with respect to the body portion, each inter-cardinal aperture of each set being an L-shaped slot oriented concentrically with, and spaced from, the respective corners of the body portion which enable rectangular patterns to be marked on a workpiece.
A method of forming a pattern on fabric comprising the steps of:
- (a) positioning a rectangular marking template relative to the workpiece, the marking template comprising a substantially rectangular planar body portion having a central aperture and a plurality of sets of apertures in the body portion, each set of apertures located a predetermined distance from the central aperture characterized in that an aperture of each set is provided in each of the four inter-cardinal directions with respect to the body portion, each inter-cardinal aperture of each set being an L-shaped slot oriented concentrically with, and spaced from, the respective corners of the body portion which enable rectangular patterns to be marked on a workpiece,
- (b) marking a center position on a workpiece using the template device as aforesaid,
- (c) marking other strategic points on the workpiece using the L-shaped slots of at least one set, and
- (d) sewing onto the workpiece to a desired design or pattern.
