There is an iron off pounce on the market that will not disappear until you iron it. You can mark your pattern on golden or tissue paper and stitch on the lines without threads--makinging perforations in the paper. Place it in the correct place and swipe the pounce pad with white powder filling. It will mark your pattern perfectly.

I use thin slivers of ivory soap after it has dried for a long time. Stays while I need it to stay and then of course washes out later. It's relatively inexpensive also.

I use taylors chalk

White chalk markers work great. But I sew as soon as i mark.

Does it wash out??? Thanks I haven't tried it before.

Depends what you want to do . If you are putting a design on for quilting then I use soap. It's great and washes off. When I draw lines to define a shape I use a standard # 2 pencil for my cutting line. Works on all colors.

Soap is excellant!

I use the yellow roll on chalk by Clover. Works great! ! !
