I'll use blue water soluble marking pens for marking quilting designs. You will need to soak it in cool water when you're done to make sure it is completely removed. I've used them quite a bit for marking wholecloth quilts and other designs that I want to last more than a few hours. If not the blue markers, then I use the purple air eraseable markers- but they are usually good for only a short time before they disappear. THen of course, you have the pencils. Just make sure you don't press too hard or that pencil won't come out. I haven't used washable crayons for fear of it not coming out after quilting.

Thanks you guys!

I just tested the silver Dritz and it came out in soap and cold water.

Always test first. Some people are using kid friendly crayola washable markers and swear by them and then the frixion pens are also being used with great success.

Love the stencil you want to use on this DP. It is turning out great. Show us the finish and what you choose to use!
peace
