Looking for a good marking pen/pencil for marking fabric to sew quilt together. Any suggestions?? The ones I have don't work that well. Thanks

i use frixion by pilot or sewline
|
thanks

Careful with the frixon pens they do disappear when friction is used ironing and that but they will show back up if in a cold place. I bought some and discovered it will not work for a car quilt as I tried and after just a minute in the cold the pen marks came back.
|
what kind and brand are you using now. this will help in giving suggestions
|
just using standard marking colored pencils but they don't glide easy on quilt when I'm trying to mark my quiling lines with my ruler.
|
Try using Berol - either white or silver and it does wash out first time it is washed.
|
If it's something you'll wash, Crayola washable markers work pretty well. I have read there are some colors that don't wash out as well as others, green and yellow if I remember right. I used the one with the pale pink cap and it totally washed out.
|
thanks. where would I be able to pick that up?
|
General's Pastel Chalk (a pencil with chalk in it instead of lead) in Dark Grey that I purchased from my LQS.
