The iron only removes the visibility of the ink. If you ship a quilt to cold place, the receiver is likely to see your markings all over it, unless you washed it before you sent it.

Washing seems to remove the ink completely - no trace of it is visible whether frozen or not.

This worked with eight colors of the Frixion roller ball style pen and six colors of the Frixion highlighter markers that I tried.

Y'all gonna love this!

I just grabbed a Frixion pen to use on the paper side of the Heat and Bond. Cut the shape out with the 1/4 inch paper allowance. And Ironed the design right off the paper!

It is in the freezer now and I am hoping the lines come back!!!!

They probably won't come back when you want them to.. :thumbup:

Mamagus

Nope they didn't come back ... just traces of the marks showed up after a hour in the freezer.

i have tested this on many fabrics that can be washed and i have come up with the same conclusion as you.

safe for anything that will be washed.

Is your freezer set low enough? I believe 14* is the magic temperature that brings the lines back.

If the marks don't reappear when in the freezer, you need to lower your freezer temp or get a new one! 14 degrees or lower is the temp the marks will reappear. Your freezer should freeze foods between 5 and 0 degrees. Your fridge should be keep refrigerated foods 34 degrees.

I found them at Sam's Club before they became popular after reading about their quilting use on a quilt blog about a year ago. I got a set of all colors (no white but the orange and pink shows up great on dark colors) for less then $8.

Well the freezer keeps ice and icecream rock solid. Maybe because the marks were on the waxy coating of Heat and Bond paper?

And are we talking 14 degrees celsius here? Or Farenheit?

I speak celsius! But can convert if I know which one we are talking about!
