I have several fabric markers, but they do seem to not show up well on the right fabrics, etc...so I went out yesterday and bought these. There are 24, and any color I could possibly need--I would have possibly liked white, but there is yellow...so..

Yesterday I used a dark green to mark a quilt. Today I finished the quilt and washed it, and sure enough...it came out just fine.
So, such a simple and relatively inexpensive solution for this problem! I feel weird I didn't think of it before.
in my experience for some reason, yellow won't wash out well.
