I had also marked on it with chalk and the good old blue marking pens. After coming out of the dryer ( not on the hottest setting) I was expecting to have to iron the Friction marks. NOPE! All were gone.

One quilt I started and then picked up about a year later had been marked with the markers, and they washed out on the first try. I really like them because the markings stand out well, as opposed to other quilting markers I had used.Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07295136945508665247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7517927228302178846.post-39034737979634290792011-08-25T11:16:48.156-07:002011-08-25T11:16:48.156-07:00I bought some Frixion pens yesterday to experiment...I bought some Frixion pens yesterday to experiment with. Most of my quilts are utility quilts and get washed over and over and over, so I'm not too worried about leftover chemicals eating away at the fabric.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01308680396802432722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7517927228302178846.post-77121038133226927462011-08-23T18:36:41.899-07:002011-08-23T18:36:41.899-07:00Hi .

I have enjoyed looking around and have especially enjoyed your pictures of the quilt show visits. Thanks.<br />I am also interested in reading about using the different marks. Thanks for sharing your results.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17824441885052008716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7517927228302178846.post-12812496150463826252011-08-22T20:53:53.887-07:002011-08-22T20:53:53.887-07:00I am actually doing a blog experiment with the Pil...I am actually doing a blog experiment with the Pilot pens tomorrow. I am going to really experiment with them though...washing and all. I have it all ready with my scraps of fabric and everything. I am actually making my son do it as part of a school project...it will be on my blog in a few days.Miss Hillbillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13422851284570747539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7517927228302178846.post-7077601018043329572011-08-22T15:51:21.890-07:002011-08-22T15:51:21.890-07:00I've been using the Crayola markers lately too...I've been using the Crayola markers lately too and so far haven't had any problems with them.

If our resident artist is drawing on a quilt back, she may choose to use other colors, including the red families - red, orange, and purple - knowing that they tend to bleed a little and using that tendency as part of the art. So far I've not used anything that I was sure would wash out - mainly because I'm pretty sure anything I thought would wash out, won't!Sarah Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18393284767325742399noreply@blogger.com
