I am new to quilting while I have already made a couple quilts that I will NEVER post pics of because they are complete disasters but my technique osigetting better. I have always struggled with pattern marking pens, hence why I feel dumb, because I can never make them work. After racking my brain with finding a product that would work for me I have tried chalk, school and sidewalk, and the flixster pens which I LOVE but they do not last a extreme amount of time and dont really fit my budget to but alot them, I try to save to support my fabric addiction. Last night while going over my lastest quilting adventure masking tape popped in my head for marking my lines. I havent gotten brave enough to do anything other than stright lines. So far it has worked wonderful. Is there any reason I should not use this and if so anyone got any advice on what to use from items around the house.
