Review on ๐Ÿงต Dritz 7757 Porter Mechanical Fabric Sewing: Achieve Precision Stitches with Cutting-Edge Technology by Angela Rodriguez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

My new best friend in the sewing workshop!

I have tried many different markers for dark fabrics and would like to try this one sooner. I've been using the Bohin white ceramic marker for a few years now, but the mechanism that pushes out the 'lead' eventually broke and I decided to give the F&P a try for a change. It's like day and night. Bohin takes pressure to get a good grade or redraw a line, and the ceramic "lead" often breaks. Imagine my surprise (and delight) when F&P White Mechanical gave me a perfect line with no more pressure than a regular graphite pencil on paper. Gives a nice fine line without the feel of chalk or wax. Easily removed with a brush and a small amount of water, quickly removes a thicker/thicker line. Can't say enough good things about this marker.

Pros
  • Pencils
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

Lead is too hard , does not mark well on knit fabrics even though they are dark color.
