I like stencil designs for my quilting and am concerned about marking on my quilt top with many products-I want to avoid the horror stories some of you have had. I have used all kinds of paper to draw the designs with pencil which I know will disappear with washing the quilt. I have used rolls of paper I have gotten at the medical supply store. It is used on examining tables.It is very easy to remove from around stitches. I have also used tracing paper that comes on a large roll at the office supply store. It is less expensive than the golden paper at the quilt store. I also draw off one design and then stitch, with no thread, eight to ten copies of the design. Sometimes, choice is dependent on whether you are more concerned about your time or treasure.
