Such good advice PaperPrincess! I had a quilt that I had used a few different things to mark and some of them washed out in some of the fabrics and some didn't in other fabrics.
I don't like the Roxanne pencils either because, like NJQuilter said, they tend to break and before long I have a nubbin of a pencil!
There are lots of thread here on marking, do a search and read through some of them and then just try different things. You my find you use this on one project and that on another. Can be frustrating but you get to my more quilty goodies and we all love to do that right
