Me too, but I don't leave them on for long periods of time and I don't put my quilted items in the freezer so my marks don't come back. I assume if you are making something that is heirloom quality you might not want to use them but my items are table runners, pot holders, etc. Don't expect those things to be around forever.

An added question. If I wash my quilt after I'm finished, will the pen wash out, or is it there to stay? Don't like leaving chemicals in quilts, especially for kids

the Ultimate Marking Pencil that irons off has cheaper shipping on Amazon then the company website.

Go ahead and use the pen but should the quilt be exposed to cold, the marks WILL return and heat will have to be applied to again remove them. (such as shipping a quilt across country - shipping to cold climate - stored in cold area) There is NOTHING that will remove the ink. It becomes transparent with application of heat, but it IS still there. Just a word of caution. I used a Frixion pen to mark a DWR quilt and learned this the hard way. Now when I use this pen (only on a rare occasion), I write theses instructions on the quilt label that I attach to the quilt.

I just bought a set of 6 at Nancy's for $12 (and free shipping). Since I just received them I only gave them a quick try - not on a full project yet - but they seemed to work fine.

Frixion. Get them at a stationary store - Stapples et al. Also fun with grand children. Write notes (on Paper) iron and the not disappears. They put it in the freezer for awhile and it comes back. This also happens to your quilt if you put it in the freezer for awhile. But it will iron out again, in case that is where you store your quilts.

I have been scratching my head on this one. Why do people mention putting their quilts in the freezer?
