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

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Be careful! best in my review

This is a very inexpensive package, and I expect most of the markers will perform okay. Just be careful with the pens. You get four empty pens and eight pen ink "refills" you have to insert yourself. That would be fine, except the pen "frames" are poorly made. Two of the four in my set didn't have openings at the point, so I couldn't put the ballpoint ink part in. I tried several McGuyver tricks to poke the holes open, without any success. After jabbing a stiletto into my hand, I decided it wasn't worth it. I'll make do with the other two and the chalk.

Pros
  • I work with so many colors, sometimes it's hard to find the right markings to get the lines straight.
Cons
  • There may not be enough product in the bundle for those who frequently quilt
