Making Your Mark
I wonder how other people mark fabrics for sewing doll clothes. This site has a number of good options: http://www.sugartartcrafts.com/2013/06/tip-of-week-choosing-best-way-to-mark.html I don't know where I can find locally some of the items there.
I have water based pens but the mark they leave on printed fabric is not very visible. Since it's water-based, it seeps through the fabric. I want the mark to stay on top of the fabric and very visible even on a printed fabric.
The tailor's chalk is too hard. The soft fabrics, like chiffon, move a lot when marking with a tailor's chalk.
The dermatograph makes thick lines. We know how a few millimeters off and it could mean a bad fit. I love these Dong-A Twistable Color Pencil for the job. If only they were sold separately and with neon colors...
