So, as of two weeks ago, only blue and red are available.SewNewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11183426665375556532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18711912.post-13412475221368458502009-12-07T22:49:42.089-05:002009-12-07T22:49:42.089-05:00I hope you find some good responses.

For heavier fabrics like twill and denim, I have been using a Hera marker, which just leaves and indentation on the fabric. For most other things, like darts, I use a rolling chalk liner. When I have to trace something like a curved dart, I have resorted to tailors tacks.Nancy Winninghamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01291320098379550586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18711912.post-80033069734803883422009-12-07T13:23:13.070-05:002009-12-07T13:23:13.070-05:00I use vellum paper that is intended for inkjet plo...I use vellum paper that is intended for inkjet plotter printers.

Someone suggested it on the Burda group and it works great. <br /><br />And talk about cheap!
