These Stabilo pencils are terrific for marking quilts or appliqué pieces on dark fabrics. Unlike chalk pencils or other common white pencils, these pencils don't rub off as you work. So, you can mark a quilt and the lines will last until you wash them out.
I also use these pencils to mark lines on vinyl pieces used in my various patterns. They mark easily on the vinyl (which is difficult to do with pencils or other washable markers) and then wash off easily with a damp paper towel.
The pencils come pre-sharpened, but you'll love the Alvin Brass Bullet Pencil Sharpener for sharpening the pencils as you use them.
Please note that there are Stabilo Pencils available in a variety of colors. Do NOT use the other colors on fabric as they will not wash out.
