I have some crabapple hill patterns I also have a light box so; how to I use the light box to transfer onto fabric. frustrating when you find out you have to figure out how to transfer the designs ! Help Thanks sheila
I use a light box all the time. Put the pattern on the light box and the fabric over it and trace onto the fabric with a pencil. I sometimes will tape the fabric to the light box so it doesn't move but other than that it's simple. You can use something other then a pencil but that's what works best for me. Kathy
I use a light box for transferring embroidery patterns all the time and really like it. I just use the tracing pen that washes out after embroidery is done. For me, this works like a charm. Like Kathy says, lay down the pattern, then the fabric and trace. Hope you find something that works well for you! CJ

I too think it's a pain to have to do this after the cost of some of the patterns but it seems to be a trend with some companies to do their patterns non-transferable. I have used the pens that was out after stitching but I can't always get a clean enough line with them so it depends on the patterns. Kathy
