My favourite method for marking dark fabrics I have posted before but I will post again. Buy WHITE school chalk and a make up pencil sharpening or a large school sharpener. Carefully sharpen the chalk until get get a nice point. Easy,inexpensive and if you mark the fabric lightly, it can be brushed away.. Never use coloured chalk to mark a quilt top as it is impossible to remove.[ATTACH=CONFIG]533457[/ATTACH]
