Tip for Marking Fabric

Post by Quilter7 » Sat Jul 12, 2008 5:27 am

A tip that was given in a class at QU is to use Crayola Washable Markers for marking fabric. You need to test on all fabric used, but they are cheaper than the fabric markers and come in a wider variety of colors.

Been using them for years and never have trouble washing out the marks. Love 'em!
