Has anyone tried just washing the fabric in really cold water to see if the inkis visible after?

Glad I don't store my quilts in the freezer. I have 8 colors of the pens and I LOVE them. Gotta figure those extremes don't happen in many houses.

Thank you for the information. I was going to look for them, but now maybe not.

I love mine and they make the smoothest mark and make back tracing on my applique so much easier.

I tested the ink on my high count batiks and on a cheap piece of fabric and had great results with the ink coming off on both. I did the heat removal then froze it and the ink came back, then I washed it with All detergent and back to the freezer they went and nothing re appeared.

So I think it depends on the fabric and would test each piece before using them on all of them.

Thanks for being our testing department head!! I was one of the ones that started a topic about these pens. Hmmmm, I still think I could use it on certain things so I might just buy 1 and give it a try. :)
