Roxanne Marking Pencils
I am finishing a quilt to enter in our upcoming quilt show. I used a stencil and a white Roxanne marking pencil to mark the quilt border. After marking, I decided to use a different design for my border. Cannot get the Roxanne marking off the border. Have tried spraying with water but it is still showing on the border.
Any suggestions on how to remove the markings?

I'm not a big fan of the Roxanne's pencils. I use them when I have nothing else that will work. Have you washed the quilt and the marks are not coming out? Or are you just trying to rub them off somehow? I don't think I've had issues with the marks not washing out. I've actually never had an issue with any marking tools I've used not washing out except once with #2 lead that had previously washed out with no issues. That's what I usually use for light fabrics and I've become a big fan of the Bohin mechanical pencil with white lead for dark fabrics. The mechanical style pencils fit much better in the stencils to my way of thinking.
