I have a question, you said this works well on light fabrics. How do you mark your dark fabrics? I didn't take the time to read all 8 pages of this post, but thought you might add to it. I am also a hand quilter, but we can always get new tips that work for us.
Thanks for sharing. |
Your quilting is beautiful....such perfect stitches.

Thanks for sharing. Most of the markings rub off during the quilting, when there is something left it will go after the first washing. It's best to test the pencils on your fabric first, so you can see how easy the markings go. |

I've done this before too, it works great, and I love using this technique instead of other marking tools because it's so much faster and you don't have to wash out the marker.

I have been able to follow video tutorials in Russian! Seriously, you have a talent and experience that should be shared more broadly. I hope you will consider doing this.

Thank you so much! This has been such a big help and very educational. Your work is awesome and I know it has to be personally rewarding for you. It sure is a blessing for the rest of us.
