Marking pencils
#1
What type of marking pencils do you like the best? I tried marking a quilt top with EZ washout quilt marker and found that I had to press so darn hard to make a mark that it was moving the fabric.

I have been using white charcoal pencils that I picked up at Hobby Lobby. General something or other is the brand. I haven't had a wash out problem and I have no issue with them actually marking the fabric. I usually fight with marking pencils.
Sometimes I use a quilting marker and something I just find a washable crayola marker, depending on what the project is or where the marks are going to be.

I was thinking that chalk would work, but I was short on time so went to Walgreens to pick up some sticks - not a one in the store. Oh well, so much for the flower design I was going to use- they wound up like free form amoebas - but that's ok!
Thanks for all your imput! Hobby Lobby here I come........
