I read here that you could use Crayola Washable Markers to mark quilts. I have to say, I was a little worried about doing so. I usually use the blue markers, but my material was pale blue and I couldn't see the blue marks. So, I tried it. I marked a baby quilt in February with the yellow and the orange marker. I made a mistake with the orange, and tried to clean the marks enough to fix the mistake and found that the color bled into other areas-making a mess, but I was able to fix the mistake.
Then I started hand quilting. I've been quilting off and on since February. Yesterday, I finished it. I soaked the quilt in hot water (the crayola box said to use hot water) to remove the marks-praying that they had not been in the quilt too long. My quilt came PERFECTLY CLEAN!! Boy was I relieved!
I'm still not sure I would use the darker colors, but I won't hesitate to use the orange and yellow again. :-D :lol:
