I use Frixion pens and they work great! Ironically, I used them before I started quilting, so that was all I had. Still prefer them to this day. Thanks for the wonderful baby blanket tutorial. I am going to make one for my granddaughter coming in July. Maybe I can make an extra and send it to you from the US! ❤
Hi Stacey. The frixion pens are so easy to use for tracing out a pattern but I wouldn’t use them on areas that aren’t going to be a seam. They can potentially leave a shadow after being hit with the iron. Cheers
Very pretty baby quilt! I use Frixion Pens for light fabrics but not dark fabrics because once your press away the lines a faint shadow can be seen on dark fabric. I like the sticker you have on your machine.
Thanks for the tip! I will be adding the stickers to my Etsy shop soon. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, I really appreciate it ❤
Such a cute quilt. Going to download the pattern, pick fabric, and get started making one. Love the iron with the light! Thank you for the video and PDF pattern.😄
Frixion pens all the time for this. I have pink and black. Because of the ballpoint, I start my making line centre out in both directions. I have not had it catch on the end of the point so maybe it’s just a quirky habit.
Great video and a great cause! I use frixon pens, but ONLY on the back of fabrics! So for any diagonal lines like you made in this video I would definitely use the frixon pen. Any marking I need to do on the front of my quilt is done with a hera marker so I don't have to worry about ghost lines reappearing. ☺😊
I use Frixon pens and markers for sewing all the time. For me, they work great! I do, however, pray the fabric with Best Press before marking so the ink does not get in the fibers.
The Best Press tip is really helpful. Thanks for sharing your technique, Linda! 🌟 I appreciate you taking the time to leave a comment. Happy quilting! 🌼
Hi Stacey. This quilt is adorable and such a great cause!! I was wondering, where do you get your pins? They look longer than mine and for some reason, I'm having pin issues and need some new ones. Yours seem to go in with ease! Thanks again for your tutorials...I love them!!! 💛🌻
Love this quilt!❤ You sew so beautifully. Wish I could sew like that. My Projects don't come out that near and straight. I've been trying to sew for a few months now and I still can't get it to look like that. ❤
I love your videos! What size backing should be used? What size is the final project? I've subscribed to your newsletter and haven't received a password yet.🤷♀️

Hi, unfortunately it's really hard to see why here when I can't confirm your name or email address. Please email me. If you subscribed to my newsletter you will get weekly emails with the password in it, and a link to the pattern library. PS this is not a pattern. I wrote a reference sheet with fabric requirements and cutting instructions. Not step by step instructions.
