My thoughts exactly. And if you iron it, it goes away again.
what happens if you give it as a gift and the person leaves it in the car overnight in the winter; they go retrieve the quilt and it has marks all over it. I'd have to at least try the washing it and then getting it cold again to see if it came back before doing it all over my quilt.

I bought mine about three projects ago...I have mixed feelings.
1. What if you give a quilt, they forget and leave it in their car overnight. The marks do return when frozen. I know this because I put it in the freezer because all my marks disappeard because I accidentaly erased my marks because dummy me pressed it with the iron. The marks return as strong and dark as when I made them.
2. I love the idea of this pen...just afraid to use it.

Do a test; mark a piece of fabric and then iron it; wash it; dry it and then freeze it; see what the results will be.

I just bought a package of three but haven't had a chance to try them out yet. The store where I bought them couldn't say enough good things about them. I hope to try them out soon!

After seeing threads on here about others finding them at Staples USA, I called yesterday and yes, they have them here at Staples in Ontario in a six pack of assorted colours. Yessssssss!
Oooh! I am going to hit Staples today! Thanks for sharing.
