Technique Tuesday - Marking Tools

by Becky Smith
Variety of marking tools including pens, pencils, chalk, and markers.

There are a lot of different options out there for marking quilts. I feel like they all have their place and they all have their pros and cons. What tool I select usually depends on the project and the purpose for my markings.
