marking my pattern
I have just finished piecing a double wedding ring queen size quilt. I plan to hand quilt it. no problem with the small arc pieces, but I want to do a design in the larger white areas. If I mark them before sandwiching, will the marks pretty much be worn off by all the handling of the quilt as I work on it. I usually mark as I go, but it is usually suggested to mark prior to sandwiching. So, what can I use to keep my marked fancy design from being worn off as I quilt? Or do I just mark as I go?
