Drawing on quilt and reduce puckering
I am a new quilter and have only quilted 2 other quilts and both have been straight lines. I am trying to do some free motion quilting for a Star Wars quote that I making for my son. I had the idea of actually writing out some of the words on the quilt in cursive to keep the lettering connected. Is there a certain pen that works well on black fabric that will completely washed out so that I can trace something ?
Also, I have always had a little bit of puckering with my backing. I lay out my backing and tape it down, spray baste the batting and top layer, and then pin it. When I folded it up to put away for the night I noticed that there were still some areas on the back that look like they are going to pucker. How do I minimize this so I don't have to take all of it apart and rebaste it together?
