There is an iron off pounce on the market that will not disappear until you iron it. You can mark your pattern on golden or tissue paper and stitch on the lines without threads--makinging perforations in the paper. Place it in the correct place and swipe the pounce pad with white powder filling. It will mark your pattern perfectly.

Depends what you want to do . If you are putting a design on for quilting then I use soap. It's great and washes off. When I draw lines to define a shape I use a standard # 2 pencil for my cutting line. Works on all colors.
