i use hb pencils and pray it comes out. so far, so good, but i am nervous about the one i am currently hand quilting.
i have tried so many things. the pens fade, and the chemicals make me a little nervous. plus, if your design is intricate they can get a bit pricey. they don't go very far....
i quilt in a hoop, so chalk, soapstone and even soap wear off. and i'm not a great quilter yet, so i need a line to follow. giving myself the vague idea of where to go just looks like i had a vague idea of where i was going....
not my favorite part of quilting, the marking....
