It was very informative but I am still searching for the stich styles I discovered on some very old museum quilts last year. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It's a little expensive but I use it on my applique and like it. The hardest thing to get used to is when you draw the line you can't see it. After about 10 seconds it appears like magic. Here's the one I'm talking about. Clover® Water Soluble White Marker Fine Point-White Terri,

I cant seam to find a markas you go method to sute me. Do you have any Ideas. I have tried the chalk in the black block-cant see it. I have tried chalk pencils-cant see them, and I have tryed tracing paper and the tissue paper stuff. I dont care for that cause I cant see my needle when its under the quilt.I sometimes run my needle to get it in the right spot on the underneth. Can you help with this?
