I use thin plastic as you need to be able to trace the features of the fabric onto your template. then if you only have one template you have to erase the lines so you can go on to a different blade for each dresden k. I'm not sure how well acrylic would work for that. I like to just have a lot of the templates cut out and t hen I just use as many as I need and go back later to erase and reuse them.
I use clear template plastic and I use a fine point marker to mark the elements of the fabric onto the template. Acrylic won't take a marker on it. I have used ink on an acrylic template but it isn't easily erased.
