Customer Reviews

a fine resource for border stencils

This is a terrific resource if you need border stencils. A two-page introduction gives you a list of instructions and the materials needed to complete your stencilling projects. There are 77 stencil patterns printed on medium-weight manila paper, and you will treat the paper with a linseed oil-turpentine solution before cutting out the pattern. There are many designs here -- rounded, square, wide, narrow, floral, geometric, Pennsylvania Dutch, simple and complex. Other books in the series are also very good.

These are beautiful borders.

The designs for borders are beautiful. They include Art Deco, Persion, American Country, and traditional floral designs. These stencils are a relief after viewing book after book of country (chickens, daisies, etc.). I found a better way of using the stencils. I had the stencils copied onto transparencies, then cut the transparencies. By using this method, if you make a cutting mistake the stencil is not ruined. Just make another copy and start over.
