Frixion pens have never been recommended for fabric use by the manufacturer and if they don't have enough confidence in their product to do that, I sure don't. Sticking with my trusty Sewline ceramic pencil which WAS made for fabric use. To each their own, like so many other decisions in quilting.

Well, as usual, I can count on you ghostrider to give us great information. I've been scratching my head on this one for a while...to use the Frixion pens or not. I've been using a Sewline and I think with all things considered I will stick with that. There are so many other things I can think of to spend money on. Thank you, again!
