Marking black quilts?
I am making a mini quilt to mock up the plans for my next show quilt. I plan to have a black background. I marked the mini with tailors chalk and it is a disaster. My foot is covered in chalk and it is downright dusty. I cannot imagine this on a large quilt.
How do people mark their designs on black quilts? Is there some other writing option other than chalk?
The only other thing I can think of is to use a light colored backing fabric, mark the design in on it (mirroring the words) and have my bobbin be the right side. But that seems like a great pain to always be checking my tension for all the quilting (it is going to be a wholecloth)
