I have designed my own stencil. I am looking for Blank stencil material larger than what I can buy at the local craft stores. Does anyone know any site on the web that I can try?

Sorry CatSpring. Wish I did. Have you asked at the local craft store if they come in larger size or maybe they have suggestion where you can go.

I live out in the country and we really don't have much of anything here. I have to drive into Houston, and boy! is that scary!!!I will keep looking on the internet. Thanks!

What are you using the stencils for? Quilting templates, piecing templates?

can you go to Home Depot? or the local hardware store? Sometimes if you look at something from a quilters angle :wink: ...They used to have stencil template blanks....or maybe something else???

Don't know how big you'd want it, or how you want to use it, but you can also make one out of freezer paper and it will iron on. If you need it stiffer, iron two pieces together first.

If you have access to any old xray films..that stuff makes great templet material and is usually FREE.

Oh my goodness! Thanks for all your responses. The stencil is for quilting and for a 16x16 square. Planning on making a king size quilt for a dear friend. I actually drew the pattern I wanted on freezer paper. Since I have to make so many squares, I really wanted something a little stiffer. I will try the sites some of you sent. Again, Thanks!!! :D
