Is there a "perfect" (temporary) marking tool?

Here is my test project getting a bath after marking with the Ultra Washable Crayola Markers.

I tested every color and they all washed out after setting for a few days and being pressed with a hot iron and spray starch.

Soap slivers or white chalk on dark fabrics if I'm marking as I go. Sewline white ceramic on dark if I'm marking something that needs to stay on the quilt for a while.
purple air erase on light fabrics if I'm marking as I go. If it needs to stay on for a while, then blue water soluble for light fabrics.

Until I learned to use ballpoint pen on this, I discovered that the pencil lines "bled" onto the fabric. I use a very sharp set of tweezers to get the little bits of paper out between the stitches.

Wow! I love this! You were brave to use it for your test project.
