If you are machine quilting......If worried about the marks not coming out, using either the Golden Threads or tissue paper might be the way to go. With tear away paper, you mark the design on the paper and stitch through the paper. You carefully tear it out of the stitching when finished.
I actually prefer to do my own repeat pattern on tissue paper. I draw the design on one sheet of tissue paper and then stack up several layers. I staple the corners together and stitch out the design on my machine without any thread. I remove the staples and pin the quilting pattern to the sandwich. I stitch through the tissue following the perforations and remove the paper after quilting.
