The product works the way it is supposed to, I guess. I even had the right kind of stencil. The problem is that the combination doesn't work the way it is supposed to. You can't connect the stencil to itself to make a long border and get it to connect in the right places. The pounce pad is so imprecise you don't know when you've succeeded in marking and when you haven't.

Three decades ago, when I made my first quilt, I made my own stencil and my own pounce out of talcum powder. This certainly is better and I expect the marking would last a lot longer than the talcum powder did, but still brush away when you no longer wanted it. So, as you can tell, I understand the system. But it just did not work for me.

easy to mark quilts with this pounce, but can get a little messy. no big deal, washes off with water.

I saw a video of how to use this product on Nancy's Notions website. She made it look so easy--just tamp the applicator in the tray that comes with it, rub it over the stencil and there is your sewing line all ready to be quilted. Unfortunately it didn't work that way for me. You have to tamp the pad a lot to get the powder to work its way though the pad and it did not come through evenly even though I tried to shake the powder around to make sure it covered the whole pad. Then after I swiped it over the stencil the line was not very distinct--it had a halo around the lines. The part that really bothered me though was that the line rubbed off before I had it quilted. Just with the movement necessary to move the piece around while stitching caused enough movement to rub the chalk marks off. I don't know if there is a way to make the powder stick to the fabric better. I would not buy this product again.
