I really appreciate this video. I am new to sewing and the choices available for the various gear is a bit overwhelming. This video helped me to pick which marking pens I would like to put in my tool kit. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the tip. Do they disappear with just water and a cotton swab (as demonstrated in this video), or does it need soap and water to remove from fabrics?
@ScentimentalButterfly however I showed it demoed is exactly how I do it in real life and also following the manufacturer instructions. However sometimes I’ll lick my finger tips and dab off the wash away. But that’s gross to show 😆
@@SookieSews thank you for your reply. I'm sorry...I thought I was asking one of the other commenters about the Crayola washable markers that they mentioned that they use. My mistake! But I did find your video very helpful. Thank you for making it! Would you happen to know about the Crayola washable markers for this purpose and if they would be removed with just water like you demonstrated or if it would need soap to remove?
Oh no worries@@ScentimentalButterfly it can be hard to know who is talking to who and since I see all the comments I always just assume the questions are directed to me :) I have not tried those type of markers, but I'd sure be interested in giving it a try
Hello! Just a fast note to say how much I enjoy the content on your channel. I have had a busy and crazy day in my sewing room but now I'm get to watch your video! I hope you have a happy Easter weekend ahead! Thank you for posting is video and your expertise.
Very informative demo with the markers. I have used several of these. I don't use them as much as I used to use them, but I have a Fons and Porter Pen with colored chalk types that are interchangeable and I really like it, but the Dritz water type erasers are the easiest to find in my area in a pinch. I also use a towel or cloth behind the marking when I use water as it helps absorb any of the marking residue that may leak from the back...can be very helpful when working with certain fabrics. Great Job again, Sookie...Keep up the great video work...
Great video Sue! I haven’t tried all of these that you highlighted, perhaps because my sewing is mostly focused on garments. I really like the chalk rollers, I have found the yellow is the hardest to remove. I like the Chakoner, which is similar. It has a different shape, it still has the little wheel on the bottom to mark the line. And the top of it has a little plastic brush to help brush away the chalk. For tailors chalk, are used the waxed tailors chalk, that can be erased with heat. It rarely leaves a mark.
I'm designing my own wedding separate, it's gonna be a top. I wanted to wear separates so I can still party in my top and wear a white shorter skirt or white(maybe black) pants during the reception. I'm not a skilled seamstress or embroiderer. So I really need something to sketch what I want on the fabric. I'll be doing beading embroidery on it. I can't do that unless I add lines to follow. I appreciate this video! 🥰
I have learned not to trust frixon pens. I love the crayola ultra washable markers and the clover water erasable marker as well as the styla water erasing pen. I also use a chaco marker. I have found that the white always brushes off. The yellow not so much.
I only use Frixion pens in areas that won’t show in the finished quilt - eg in the seam allowance or to mark sewing lines. They can leave ghost marks after removal on dark fabrics. I LOVE the ceramic pencils and use those often in my hand applique and hand quilting. For marking hand quilting I alternate between using the water erasable markers and an art pencil - Verithin silver pencil, which makes a much lighter and easily removable line on light fabrics. I was taught by my hand quilting teacher (who learned this the hard way) that anything marked with water erasable pens should not be left in the hot sun or a hot car because heat will set the markings!
Very good information here. Just wanted to comment that I have used a white heat erasable pen on dark fabric, and it left a ghost mark that was virtually impossible to remove. Next time I'll stick to a soap sliver in that situation. I'm also in Florida, so the heat erasable generally works for me, just not in white.
Our lovely humidity here in FL sure can mess with our markings can’t they. Love that you use the soap too. I might include that on a hack video soon :)
Thank you for this video. I have found the heat pen marks initially disappear (I'm in dry California), but within hours or days, a gray residual line returns. Even after re-ironing, there was a residual shadow. I have tried Nonce pencils and the washable blue pen. I have horror stories where, despite trying both on the fabric, they did not disappear completely - the Nonce white on red fabric, and the blue on white fabric! Large quilts ruined...I'm still looking for the perfect marking implement! Oh, and regular pencil used on Golden Thread paper for "stencils" can transfer onto the fabric below when you sew on the line! I am hoping other quilters have had better luck.
I love the Dritz disappearing pen, and I was literally using it 5 minutes ago and complaining that the cap won't stay on the end of the pen. But they work great and so easy to get rid of the marks.
I tried out the Chaco and had a hard time making a line on fabric especially knits. Went back to the Dritz water soluble but need a decent sub for black fabric especially knits.
Finally got to watch this video and love seeing all the marking items. The only one I have used is the dritz mark be gone. I bought the white mark be gone and I can not get it to work at all ever. I even marked and waited a while after watching your video and I still can not see it. 🙃 thank you again for the video.
thank you so much for the video! I like to use the heat erase pen on fabric, as it is fine and easy to get from office supplies shop, but I am not able to mark it on dark color fabric.
I have the sewing triple, pink, white and regular pencil, I have always been unhappy with it, impossible to refill, after watching you I will try again, but do love my friction pens and my quilters select erase pen, but it dissappear a little to fast
Hope it does help you get refilled. I’ve been using Mechanical pencils almost all my life so it has the same feel to it, just have some patience with it and try it again. But yeah I’m not super happy with the removal of those marks from the triple pencil. Thanks so much for leaving a comment
I want to buy the Clover white chalk marker but lately the reviews I've read complain that it doesn't last out side one project, such as sewing a pair of jeans. Now this video was made a year ago so I'm wondering if since then Clover has gone the way of so many manufacturers and reduced the amount of product you get in a single purchase. Plus Clover's prices are NOT CHEAP. Too dear for just one use. What have you experienced recently in 2023? Really appreciate the feedback. thanks
I just made a new video that will be about sewing a pillow and tried four different types of marking tools. I find that it's nice to have a variety on hand, but they don't have to the most expensive, since usually they are all made by the same ppl. Find what works and if it doesn't try new options.
I have removed frixion marks with heat and had a whitish “ghost” line appear later. The company that makes frixion has stated that it is not recommended for fabric due to the chemicals used to create the ink. If I use them it’s always on the inside where it won’t matter if it comes back.
This!! It will kind of bleach the color out of dark fabrics. I discovered this when I was marking a shirt for embroidery and it left a white x smack dab in the middle of the shirt.
Wonderful demonstrations, thank you. I find I like the Frixion pens, over the the other options, the most. However, I’ve had several occasions where the markings, would not disappear, no matter how much heat I applied to the marking. That’s why I’m watching your channel, hoping to find a substitution. Having marks not disperse is a stressor for me. It seems like the air pens might provide the best service. Thanks again for your pen review. 🙏🏾
I’d say the air error ones for my climate are the best option. Like I mentioned, in the video, sometimes they disappear a little too fast. And not sound like a broken record, but always test on a small spot that’s not noticeable. Yeah, those friction pens are pretty awesome until they don’t work, I learned that the hard way. I hope you do find some value in the video and please consider subscribing to my channel if you are not already doing so
Hi Sookie. I am not one who sews, but I found your video very informative. I watched your video because as a finish carpenter who often installs kitchen cabinets I need a white colored pencil to mark dark colored stained (or painted) moldings to length. I am leaning towards the Sewline ceramic white pencil. I need something that is thin, crisp, easily to see (failing eyes), fast (no time for removing & replacing caps or sharpening all the time) and will write on prefinished wood, which can sometimes be a little slick depending on the quality of finish applied at the factory. I generally make a 1/4" tick mark where I need to cut. Will the Sewline ceramic write on wood that is finished? Or maybe the chalk pencils but they would need to be sharpened all the time. Any input from you (or anyone else reading this) might have, will be most helpful and appreciated.
Thanks for stopping by. Such an interesting thought. And I’m gonna have to say I’d probably try the air erasing out of curiosity first, so I might test this out myself, but chalk too. Let me do some experimenting and get back and please do the same.
@@SookieSews Thank you I appreciate it. All I have currently is a white color pencil with hard lead the I recently got from the art department at Hobby Lobby. They didn't have the Sewline ceramic pencil in the sewing department. The artist pencil does work, but needs the sharpening all the time. Does the Air erasing pens come in white? I never heard of them before. The one with the bad fitting cap is a definite no for me. It will get lost on the job and dry out in no time. Maybe one of the other two would work.
@t.e.1189 I tested the air erasing pen on wood and it’s ok but not a fine line. I think the ceramic would be best, clean line and lots of colors. If you look in the description you’ll find links to guy them on line. Good luck.
Thanks Sookie. I went ahead & order a Ceramic pencil by Dritz. It also takes the .9mm leads. I'm suppose to get it today. I start a kitchen Tuesday with black cabinets. I guess I'll find out this week if it works.@@SookieSews
I see people using a marker all the time but I found a fabric marker that didn’t wash out. Even with spray and wash. Wasn’t marked permanent either. Have you ever tried those kids markers that are supposed to wash out?
I went to Sewline's website and after watching the 3 pen videos, and still not getting promised results, the answer was in "Tips & Tricks". Does not work on ironed fabric. Would have been good to know on the package instructions.
I want the best one that I can wipe off the easiest with my hand. I will be marking on cloth pool tables for teaching specific shots. Which one do you recommend the best for that?
@@MagicMikeBilliards I believe Madam Sews chalk marker is manufactured by Clover and private labeled - meaning it's the same thing. But I'm not 100% sure
Thank you! My daughter just gave me a 4 layer prom dress to alter by this coming Saturday!!! She told me to just cut off the bottom, 3 layers of sheer and 1 of satin and don't worry about hemming it. Lol- my granddaughter has no idea how compkicated it is. But thanks to your video and the comments, at least I know to use the right marking tool. I do have a rotary cutter, thank God!

Has anyone used it on theirs, since it would be on this fabric for probably a yr as big as this project is. Does it still come out well after being in so long? I would be sink washing or putting in my washing machine. Thanks for any help you can give :)
What a great question. Since I think it will depend on your climate it might be hard for me to answer with all certainty. I’m in warm humid climate and it’s hard to keep wash away on for very long since it will come off. What about Frixion (heat away).
@@SookieSews Thx for the help :). I think I would have the same problem with the Frixion pen lol. It is not that humid here usually but it gets over 100 F in my craft area in the summer pretty regularly.
@@SookieSews Thanks for reply! Since you have so many types on hand, would you be able to test on your own skin and just say which ones happen to easily show on dry skin for 10 minutes before fading? which easily show on dry skin for 1 minute before fading? Which ones don't show on dry skin at all?
You could post the marking of your skin as accidental in the course of actual sewing work, so as not to stray from the intended use of the pens and pencils of your sewing audience.
@@SookieSews I just found that Ulta sells an Essence Kajal white eyeliner for $1.99 no problem. I was just hoping to eliminate multiple use items in my house, and knew you had about 8 on hand to try.

I have found the Dritz markers that you take off with water work best for me. On dark colors, I have to be careful but use chalk or soap sliver.
It’s great when you discover what works best!!
I'm still trying to find my favorite. I really need one when I'm marking the marks on my pattern to my fabric.
Thanks for sharing this Sookie 😊
You’re welcome. I tend to use the purple air erasing the most or frixion :)
