I used to have large windows and copied using that method but now, with small windows, I copy my pattern table top by using large format paper, carbon paper and tracing wheel.
I wrote about the paper already, somewhere. It's a large roll 90gsm and 600mm x 50 metres and cost me €19 if I remember correctly. I got it from a local printers. Butcher paper might do the job too, if easier to source.
If the french windows don't work out this way might suit you, you could do a lot of tracing but only need to cut out when you want to use something.
I've been storing the cut patterns by punching with a single punch and threading a treasury tag through, clipping that to a hanger. A sortof cheap, using what I had, version of how I see patterns being stored. So far it's working ok.
Great find, especially uncut... enjoy
