The painter's and masking tape method is great as well. I forgot about that when writing the other nite. I started using the blue painter's tape after discovering it was really hard to see the edge of the off-white/tan masking tape when quilting on the same color fabric - duh!! ;)

As far as I am aware, Press and Seal is not available in Australia.

Do you mean for quilting annabanana?

If so I draw a design onto copy paper using pencil, sew over the lines, run a blunt instrument over the stitching so the paper removes easily........just peels off with no trouble at all.

But it so happens today I'm trying to find out how to copy a picture onto fabric for applique (different situation) and I'm going to buy some white carbon paper from an art shop. I don't know how I will go with this but it's what I'm going to try.

I don't think it's available here either.

There is also a Sketch and Wash pencil that washes away after use. Just be sure to test first. You can use a lightbox to trace pictures for applique.

Wow great ideas!

Thank you all for the information. God bless.

Gladwrap Press and Seal is also great used as an overlay to arrange your appliqué pieces before stitching them.

It's good to iron the netting first to make sure the ink is dry!

Look for the Crayola brand fine point washable markers. They have them at WalMart. I use a light box and a printed pattern under the fabric and draw the lines. I make family quilts and washing is a requirement for a quilt I make. GD's drag them all over the house!
