I use WalMart bags instead of the baggies.  The WalMart bags are made from a
different PE and are stiffer and have no lubricant.  I would be just a
little afraid of the baggies as they have a slip agent in the PE. A marking
pen can be used as you suggest to get the outline of the fiberglass desired.
The WalMart bags do come in different sizes and when slit can be used for
pieces up to 3 to 4'.  I haven't had much luck handling anything any longer.
I also use them to protect my working table, using a double layer. A soft
vinyl cutting pad can be used to cut the fiberglass, available at your local
WalMart in the sewing section.

And as suggested by RW you can sqeegee out all of the excess epoxy from
between the layers of WalMart bag material.  Actually I have overdone the
removing excess resin, sqeegeed till the fiberglass looked a little white
again. Also try to get all of the bubbles out at this stage.
