I use the trick of slanting the light source across the fabric. And, I wear pair of close-up, reading glasses to enlarge what I am seeing. I just get a pair of cheap reader glasses. I can, also, feel where I've been with my fingers. Do you wash your quilts after you sew? If yes, then use a bar of soap to mark where you have been or where you plan to sew. If you are not going to wash, then try the tailor's chalk, or I wonder if the street/backboard chalk would work. I don't think I would use a color without testing it by washing it. The last thing you want is to find whatever dye they put in clings to fabric. I hope you post a picture.
