Gotta-have notions are those notions of necessity that make your sewing easier and more enjoyable for a multitude of projects. I have included my all-time favorites, new innovations and what the professionals use to improve their sewing results in the most efficient way.
Every sewing or quilting hobbyist needs an assortment of marking tools. Accurate marking is one of the secrets to professional-looking projects. Marking actually saves you time because project pieces align with ease.
A fine-point pen makes it much easier to mark fine lines, trace small designs and transfer complex pattern marks. Water-erasable, air-erasable or white marking pens decisions, decisions, decisions Here is a guide to help you decide when to use each.
Air-Erasable Pen
Features:
The air-erasable pen makes bright purple or pink marks that usually vanish in twelve to twenty-four hours without washing. Pressing can permanently set marks, so remove marks with water before pressing.
Use:
Use an air-erasable pen when marking washable fabric or embroidery that you plan to sew right away. If you mark your project and decide to sew it at a later time, your marks most likely will be gone.
Water-Erasable Pen
Features:
This pin-point pen makes fine lines, so you can trace small designs or mark complex patterns clearly. A water-erasable pen makes bright blue marks that are easily removed with plain water. Pressing can permanently set marks, so remove marks with water before pressing.
Use:
Mark embroidery, quilting and pattern details on washable fabrics.
Regardless of what type of marker you use, always test marking and removing the mark on a scrap of fabric before marking your project. Remove marks with ease using a dual marking pen. These pens are available as air- or water-erasable. A pen is at one end of the marker and an eraser at the other, so you can make your mark and immediately erase it.
Fine-Point Water-Erasable Pen

Water-Erasable Marking Pen
White Marking Pen
White Marking Pen
Features:
This fine-point pen clearly marks dark fabrics. As the ink dries, white markings become more visible. Markings disappear upon ironing or when you spritz with water.
Use:
This is my very favorite! For years, I wondered why there wasn't a white marking pen available; when this came out, I was thrilled! I use it on dark fabric quilt blocks, pattern details and craft projects. I especially like the fact that marks disappear when I iron the project.
Chalk is perfect to use on fabrics with a nap or when marking with a ruler. A marker with a rotating metal chalk wheel snugs up close to the ruler and produces a clean, accurate mark.
Tailor's Chalk
Features:
Tailor's chalk is often found in the shape of a triangle; the edge marks fabric with precision. The marks are easily removed and don't leave a residue. The chalk is usually available in several colors. Tailor's chalk may have a chalky or waxy consistency. Some Tailor's chalk comes with a sharpener to maintain pointed edges for fine line marking.
Uses:
Tailor's chalk is a classic! It works on just about any fabric. However, because it is easily removed, it may not be the best choice on fabrics that are handled a lot.
