Default Using soap for marking on quilts

I want to use soap to mark a design on my quilt. I have some concerns. Will the soap gum up the needle? If I need to do a large area, won't some of the soap rub off with movement of the quilt through machine? I tried whittling down the soap and I can't seem to get a nice sharp point. The point gets too soft and breaks off before I can shave it to a point.
Any suggestions on how to proceed?
