I've used a Clover Hera marker to do this in the past, but I think that using a needle to mark would be useful in very fine areas that need marking too. Thank you for the tip!

Looks like you are using the needle in a fashion similar to a hera marker. Very good idea. Thanks.

Eleanor Burns showed a similar method on one of her shows that I saw yesterday. She had a tool with a handle that hard a kind of dull knife edge- I think it was originally a Japanese tool for marking fabric- oh, I see others have named it; it is a Hera marker. Seems like a darning needle would be cheaper and always on hand. Beautiful handwork- thanks for sharing!

Your quilting is stunning...and thanks for the marking tip. I am about to start a small hand quilting project and this technique will come in handy.
|
Thank you for sharing this, I have never heard of this, that is why I love this sight, I am always learning something new.
|
Your hand quilting is superb. My attempts look like I'm trying to sew a tent together!
|
