Pam, I have always used a fine point Sharpie. I always wash my quilts when done, so have not noticed any problem with the marker transferring to the thread??? The Sharpie ink is real dry before I start quilting. Maybe I'll see if a Washable felt pen will mark on the Stretch 'n Seal, or a regular ball point pen just to be safe. I've used the S 'n S for a lot of quilts. So sorry you had a problem with it. Just like everything else, what seems to work for one, may not work for another. Look at all the ways there were to do the Double Diamond Units!
