That sounds like the best idea yet! And it would not shift out of position either.
That lady at your store must have meant to use the stencil in the same way, quilting around the outside edge. Although I would make a pattern off of the stencil and preserve the integrity of the original template.
I have trouble even getting chalk marks to go away and there is now way i would try the markers after reading all the negative comments about them.
