Anyone have any advice on what pen to use for a signature quilt that can hold up to a few washings?

Try a SHARPIE by Sanford. Available just about everywhere, even Kroger store. You might also get the kind made for putting name on kids clothes for camp.
|
I use a Micron01 Archival ink pen I bought at the LQS. Before that, I used a Rub-a-dub Laundry marker.

Sharpies bleed and fade, not recommended for fabric if it's something you want to last a long time. Use a Micron pen and don't forget to heat set it. Follow the directions that come with it. Lots of colors, several different thicknesses and they are archival.
|
Some require heat setting to really stay in. Be sure to heat set it if required or if you don't know.

Micron Pigma pens .o5 is best and i always heat set just to be sure. been using them for years.

micron pigma pens; they are permenent, acid free, will not bleed (sharpies bleed). they are made for writing on fabric with a fine point.
|
No doubt about it! Micron pigma pens and don't forget the heat!
