How do you use the grain line arrow to place pieces on the fabric?

The grain line arrow is to be placed parallel to the selvedge. Measure the end of the line to the selvedge, pin. Then make sure the other end of the arrow is the same distance from the selvedge and pin. This process is extremely important. If your garment is not cut 'on the grain', it wont hang properly, it won't be comfortable - you'll always feel 'off' when wearing it, but you won't know why, so you just won't wear it. Never skip this step of laying out your pattern, and never eyeball it. Measure it.

Pattern pieces cut in this fashion are sometimes more difficult to sew because when fabric is cut on the bias it gives the cut edge more of a stretch.
