Читать книгу Cathedral Window Quilts - Lynne Edwards - Страница 9

A marking pencil is needed to draw round templates for odd shapes and windows. I use a fine wind-up lead pencil or a sharp watercolour pencil in white or blue if it shows better on the fabric. I also use watercolour pencils to mark any quilting that I might do in a border. These are also known as aquarelle pencils and are available from art shops in dozens of shades. For quilting I choose a shade similar to the fabric but dark enough to be seen clearly. The line wears off the fabric as it is stitched and can be lightly sponged to remove final traces.
