I have a roll of that paper also, but never thought of pinning it ot a quilt. I just use it for making my stencils, now I need to give this a try. Hugggies, Fay

Instead of stencils I trace designs I like on white tissue paper with pencil and if I find a spot that's hard to get out of the stitches I spritz a little water and rub it with my finger. Works well for me and the price is right :-D

You can do the same procedure that you are using with sewing the design without thread to perforate. Instead of sewing over it use it as a stencil. Lay it on your quilt where you want the design, pounce chalk or baby powder over it, working it into the holes and you have a reusable stencil.
I have also traced onto press n seal. It is like saran wrap but tacky. It sticks to most anything and is repositionable. You can see through it and it tears out very easily. Ann in TN |
