I have used something like this, not sure of the brand though as it's stashed on a shelf.
I just use a wash-away pen to trace on the mesh, then onto the fabric. Will try a Frixion pen next time.
Have also used a good stiff tuille (netting), it gives the same result.

Sounds like a good idea. I would use a frixion pen and then just iron it off to use another design.

This one looks a little more rigid and easier to handle. I suppose a piece of screening might even be preferable to the netting.

Anyone try this one?
With the price $9.28 for one 12" X 16" piece, I will stick with tulle. For $10 I can buy yards and yards of tulle. Just remember to get the smallest holes to accomplish the task, not the stiff crafty tulle with really big holes. The smaller the holes, the more detail you ca transfer.

I have not used this. I just use plastic templates, move them and use washable markers.

have you read all the reviews and warnings about the Frixon pens. The statement from the company is most interesting. They disavow using it on fabric, says it was never intended for fabric. I would chance using one on my quilt for drawing the quilting design. perhaps to mark the patchwork shapes but never somewhere you would see it. It may disappear but can come back in normal use and might even leave a shadow mark on some colors of fabric.

I found mine - it's a 'Clover' brand, and seems to be a teflon type product, JFYI. I've also just used a soft pencil.
