I'll check out the art supplies next time I'm near a store that might have them and see if I can have some luck!
The ceramic mechanical pencils ... would these be art supplies? drafting? or?
Petey ... I have the Frixxion pens too, and really like them.
Most of the time, I use mine for marking the wrong side of fabric.
However, you may find that they bleach out fabrics.
I know I have had that happen on both dark and light.
So as
Holice suggests ... test test and test again!
Yikes! Ok, now I'm re-thinking the friction pens altogether. If you are using them on the backside of the fabric and the lines come back in cold weather (not necessarily the freezer), not a big deal. But, if there is any risk of the fabric bleaching, then they are getting crossed off my supply list! Somewhere on QB I thought I read on a thread that the friction pens were not originally designed for fabric, only paper and they just got adapted by us crafty people. Hmmm?
