White Fabric Mechanical Pencil

This is THE most precise pencil for marking Sashiko patterns on indigo (that will eventually be rubbed/washed away), and it shows up wonderfully against those darker fabrics. My only "con" is cost. It's a wee bit more expensive than the traditional-pencil that needs to be sharpened, BUT it's nice to keep in the kit for the one-off projects that really need precision.

I misunderstood that it was a ceramic lead and not chalk. On one applique piece the hard tip actually pulled up fibers where I stroked the lines! The ceramic point seems to be okay for marking a quilting line. I hand quilt most of my work and need a line that won’t rub off in the first few minutes. I plan to use it on my darker fabrics.

This is really very helpful for darker fabrics, especially when making clothes. It came off pretty easily, but I haven't pushed the limits of that very far yet- I've used it in areas where it is embroidered over, or where I've cut along the line.

This marker makes such a nice, crisp line. And doesn't need sharpening! I love it!

I've tried a variety of markers over the years. This one was recommended by an instructor of one of the zoom classes I recently took so I decided to give it a try. So far I'm pleased - very fine line which I like. Makes a white line which is good for dark fabrics but I'm wondering if there are other colors that can be used on light fabrics.
