Thread: Marking problem

I usually use some kind of a pen as I am afraid the graphite in the pencil will stain the quilt. I know some people use pencil to mark but I guess I am just paranoid. You can use anything as long as there is not any moisture in it like the crayola marking pens, they have too much moisture and it will desolve the interfacing, I know the hard way.

Have you ever thought of marking the back of the quilt quilting it in reverse??? I have a few times especially because I prefer putting metallic thread in the bobbin.

I have always used Crayola washable markers. They have variety of colors and I have never had a problem with the color washing out.
