About the Full Line Stencils:
Full Line Stencils are unique, they are made to be transferred with a Pounce pad. The opening that the chalk from the pad goes through is a mesh or screen, this allows the complete line to be transferred. These stencil don't have a true opening so a pencil will not work to transfer them. The way they work is by the chalk powder in the pounce pad being forced through the screen mesh as it's swiped across the surface of the stencil. The design is transferred on to the quilt top so quickly, no more fatigue in your hands from gripping the pencil, fabric does not get stretched and pulled like it does with a sharp pencil point. Rather than tracing all those lines you just swipe the chalk filled refillable Pounce Pad over the mesh and are ready to sew in no time. No more breaks and bridges that are found in traditional stencils. They are accurate, fast and easy to use. This is the perfect go to design when you can not make up your mind. It goes with everything
