This is so beautiful! I love the pink on the dark fabric. My first thought was - I'll never be able to quilt like that. And then you go and show us how you do it! How sweet of you. I think I can do it now, or at least give it a try. What are you using to mark the fabric with?

I am using a waxy kind of marker I got at the LQS. It didn't have a brand name on it, but it works just like the "Miracle Chalk Chubby Crayon" marker; easy to mark on dark fabrics, and totally disappears with a warm iron. When I'm marking on light fabrics, I like the blue water soluble markers. I've had good experenices with getting those marks out easily in water.

Thanks so much for letting me know. I'm sure I can find it or something similar at my LQS. I'm new to the quilting portion of quilt making and I really haven't known what to use for marking the quilts.
