My most used marking tools are #4 artist's pencils bought at Jo-Ann's and I get the Quilter's Choice white/grey chalk pencils for darker fabrics. If I need a really fine line, I may use a mechanical pencil; however the mechanical pencil is often not easy to use on fabrics unless you have the softer leads in it. All the above comes out easily in the wash!

I have a white chalk clover chaco-liner that I love. It's pretty old and works perfectly-I refill it with cornstarch. I also have a hera marker for light colored fabrics, or I'll use some painter's tape.

Bohin white chalk on darker fabrics and the double (blue/purple) marker for other projects. I have used frixion pens when marking squares for HSTs but I end up cutting at the line so I'm not concerned about how much is left on my fabrics as they are beyond the sewn seam.

Crayola Ultra Clean fine tip markers (Wal-Mart or Target) for everything except the darkest colors. The white or pale pink Crayola Ultra Clean crayons for black or navy. Both easily come out in the wash. The crayons I usually can get out just by rubbing with a damp piece of batting.
