Welcome to the Quilting Board!
What type of marking pen do you use to mark your quilts? Do they iron or wash out especially on white fabric?
I use stencils with plain old chalk. I can't mark very large areas at a time, but it removes very easily. I use the color chalk on white or light fabrics
Sewline ceramic mechanical pencil with interchangeable leads. They wash out, or you can erase the marks. I like them because they don't have to be sharpened.
Me too my favorite toolOriginally Posted by happyquiltmom

i use the frixion pen as much as possible - they iron out. I have also used the fons & porter ceramic white pencils for some dark areas. Regular graphite lead works well too - just have to remember to make it light enough, it usually will rub out by the time I'm done hand-quilting it.

All of the above but I really love the Frixion pens! Also use the blue markers and occasionally Crayola washable markers.
Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift....that's why it's called the present.

I use the blue washout marker...always comes out with a short soak in cool water.
Happy Stitching! Kim
Me, too. I've never had any problem with them.
I use these as well...
