I have been using a pen to draw around patterns onto felt, however, the lines sometimes show.

I know you can get a pen I think it is that fades out.

does anyone know what it's called so I can look to buy one?

I fankyou xx:-)

I've got one that disappears when you iron over it.  If you didn't mean to lose it you can put it in the fridge and it comes back.  It's called friXion and you can buy them on here,  Maggie told me about them.:-D

CB...would tailor's chalk work?

[captainbovine]

no not really Merc, I bought some of those tailors chalk pencils but it drags on the felt and you can't see the line anyway.:|

off to have a peek, Tara.

Merc, I'm assuming I need the 0.5mm pen, not the rollerball? I think it would make a finer line?

[hightara]

type in hemline vanishing marker........... thats the one i have and its brilliant...... the marks disappear in about half an hour

[captainbovine]

whoooo Tara! will ya look at all those FQ bundles on that ladyee's site!!! I've saved her for future reference]:)

I think the pen that fades out will be better as felt goes a bit funny if you iron it sometimes.

thanks laydeeeeees xxxxxx

[hightara]

[captainbovine]
