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!
I read an article that said to use a Sharpie and be sure it is completely dry. It also said NOT to use a regular ball point pen because the ink will transfer and you will have to try to get it out.
