Has anyone used the tulle as a stencil? How satisfactory is it?

I know the washable crayolas are great for marking but wonder about the tulle stencil. Right now I'm using Press n Seal to trace my pattern onto...but sure get tired of all that tracing..a stencil that I can mark through would sure be great. Homemade stencil of course...I don't want to buy one if I can help it. LOl I try to keep costs down so my husband doesn't complain. <grin>
