But don't use on a solid fabric as they leave a faint line but your quilting stitches might be enough to cover it.<br />FRIXION is my choice now....Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07816490142334340354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9143452821962929299.post-14953301329438801382014-05-25T23:52:40.447-04:002014-05-25T23:52:40.447-04:00I have just purchased a Bohin mechanical fine chal...I have just purchased a Bohin mechanical fine chalk pencil.

I also like to use the Clover pencil which comes with three colours of refillable leads - white, pink & green. I like them because they always have sharp points, so the line you draw is a fine line, and they are chalky, so the design comes off easily.

Depending on the pencil "lead", or "ink", I find that it shows better than most colour including white. Yellow would be a good choice too. Have fun with the experimentation. With all the pencils you've got, I'm sure you will find something that works. <br />Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14772079099766225814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9143452821962929299.post-48399665949800348472014-05-25T18:48:01.306-04:002014-05-25T18:48:01.306-04:00Be sure what ever you use will come out.
