Well the saga continues.....After marking this quilt with several different markers over the course of 2 years, I tried to wash them out. I used frixion pens, blue washable pens, pencils, and crayola washables so I had to use different methods to remove them. I believe the biggest disaster was the frixion pen in the light blue/turquoise color This last frixion ink would not move with heat, amodex, motsenbocker's lift off, shout, alcohol. Oxyclean and Dawn Dishwater soap with a rug cleaning surfactant was the only thing that moved it but it was slow. It went from thin blue line, to a bleeding blue line, to a blue fabric front, back and batting, to clean after about 25 scrubbings. Below are some photos of before, beginning, (skip middle-think all blue) and end. When I am all done, I will photo the whole quilt, If I don't die of elbow grease.
