Micron Pigma pen????
 

I've had trouble with the ink from the Micron pens coming out in the wash.:mad:
I set the ink with a hot dry iron......what am I doing wrong????:(
Has anyone else had this problem?

We have had some discussions on this. Maybe try the "search" function upper right? Good Luck!!

I did a test on several different pens since I was going to use them for signatures on a wedding quilt I was making. I found with several washings that pen didn't last, the one that did the best was the Zig millennium. Hope this helps.

I've found that letting the ink from the Pigma pens really "set," as in days or weeks before washing, makes it stable thru further washings. In the past I labeled my quilts after I washed them. Then the ink stayed in just fine the next times they were washed.

Pigma was pretty much all we had when I first started so I got used to it.

Thanks for the tips!:)

I use Zig as well...

I had a blue one run on me - I didn't know about setting the ink with an iron at the time - but it had set for WEEKS before I washed the quilt. But this was from about 20 years ago - maybe they've changed since then.
