I make a lot of quilts with black and use Sewline ceramic markers specially manufactured for the purpose.
|
I use my sewline ceramic pencil- nice clear lines (ceramic leads come in white, green, pink) shows up well, doesn't skip, removes easily. Fons & Porter also sells the same pencil (it's a mechanical pencil you put the 'leads' in-easy to use)

I use a Bohin mechanical pencil with white lead on dark fabrics. Not nearly as chalky as some other similar marking tools and is a very fine line. Now granted, I hand quilt vs machine but you might want to give it or something similar a try.

Slivers of bar soap work well on marking black quilts. And, up side is, you just wash it out or take a damp cloth to it. That's all I use. Haven't found anything that works better yet. :)

But how do you get it off now? I was told to spritz and rub a little, but no, it doesn't. Any suggestions? Please? and Thanks! |
