Review on Quilting Marking Essentials Bundle: 10 Tailor'S Chalks, 4 Heat Erasable Fabric Markers With Refills, And 3 Sewing Fabric Pencils by Carlos Krueger

Revainrating 3 out of 5

One refill and one pencil don't work, one chalk is broken.

I received this set yesterday and tested every item on a pice of fabric.

One refill (red) and one pencil (pink) don't work (don't leave a trace on a fabric), and one chalk arrived broken.I am keeping this item because it is still a good deal, but you are getting much less than listed, for your money.I am going to use refills without placing them into their pens. The refills would dry out much faster when placed inside the pens because you have to remove the refills caps in order to place them in the pens.I am just starting sewing and need to choose the best tool for me.My advice: this set is OK for beginners who don't yet know what tool (chalk or pencil etc.) they prefer.If you have preferred way to mark fabrics, buy something else.

Pros
  • This chalk is good, but if pressure is applied to get a deeper line it has a tendency to crack.
Cons
  • Not useful when working with heavy fabric types.
