Vanishing Ink
I bought an "air erasable" pen recently to use for some quilting and embroidery projects, and I've been testing it out to see how quickly it vanishes.

I use this same pen and kids at home wants to use it everywhere! :) Last idea was to take it to school. I feel exited just like kids with this :)
I bought one last week and am fascinated!
Perhaps iI need to get out more!!
I have this exact same pen at home. My other half started his fitness regime on Monday and wrote down how far he went on the cross-trainer, how long it took him and how many calories he burned.
When he brought a blank piece of paper to me, I realised that he'd used the vanishing pen. I wasn't the most popular person in our house yesterday...!
I never knew these existed! That is going to make embroidery SO much easier! :D
xo,

I need to add this to my collection of water soluble fabric pens! Vanishing is way cooler than just coming out with a bit of water.
I get excited too with any new sewing stuff I get my hands on! Lately I got a bobbin stacking thingy from Clover, it's cute but I found out I need more: I use lots of colors on bobbins!
I use these pens all the time for my sewing, I have them in purple, pink and aqua blue. Some stay longer than others and it also depends on the fabric, some don't hold the ink for more than a minute.
For dark fabrics I use a simple white coloring pencil.
I can't live without the pens though! :)
I can understand you! ;)
I've got one of these pens and it works really well on lighter coloured felt... not so visible on dark blues, greens, purples, etc - am all there with you on the excitement :-)
Ah, it's good to know I'm not the only person who finds these pens exciting!
Nykie D - that story is hilarious! :)
