You nipped it in the bud right away and told her what you had done. I know that is what she appreciated. It looks great already and anxious to see when it's finished.

Do this exercise and never worry about this happening again. Walk around your sewing room/ space and pick up every permanent marker you find. Now walk out of the room/space and put them as far away fromyour fabric as possibe and never let them near it again.

You did a marvelous repair and what a story you have to tell! Good uck with the show.
peace

Oh My, how awful that must have been for you! Kind of like when you hit the delete key on the computer and it's too late to stop! So glad you were able to fix it!

Nice to have an understanding friend. Glad you were able to correct the mistake.

You did a great job of fixing that. How awful that must have felt when you realized what you did! I commend you for being honest with her. Glad she's understanding, but it's really no big deal after you fixed it so well.

Wonderful to know your friend is a true friend. At a quilt retreat a quilter I didn't know was cutting her fabric on a small mat on our lay out table. She didn't notice my quilt top was underneath part of her fabric and cut the bottom corner in strips. I thought she was going to go in shock she was so distraught. I wasn't upset enough to be tearful or angry at all about the quilt top damage. It was just fabric, but I would have been very upset if she hadn't been upset about it.

Wow thank you for posting this-I keep my frixon pens in a drawer with some permanent pens I use for labels...definitely moving them!

I am absolutely paranoid about using ANY type of inky pens for marking.

You did a fine repair job, I'm sure you feel better now. The most important thing is the friendship.
