I use silver, yellow pencils and chalk and I have started using the new Pilot Frixion pens. They are fantastic. I get then in a pack of 6 colors. Just be sure you read and follow the directions. I am also a hand quilter. I have had bad experiences with the blue and purple pens.

Hi Stephanie, I'm a hand quilter so I use chalk or pencils specifically made for fabric.
Not sure if this is what you wanted though. :)

I'm just finishing up a king on the frame. I made the motifs with paper and traced around them with a sliver of soap. this only works on darker fabrics.
the L shape paper is to center the flower
