I know before I start how my pattern is going to look.
Thanks for the idea of spraying with Best Press over the chalk. I'm going to try it.

Linda, I have done several quilts using stencils and washable markers. Those quilts look good. My other attempts at FMQ w/o stencils or rulers do not look so good lol.
