Dritz 3091 Soapstone Marking Pencil

Great for woven fabrics but not for felt.

Have not had a chance to try it yet. But a friend has one and she loves it.I tried it and I know I will like it.

This type of marking pencil was recommended by the Sunbrella company to mark the outdoor canvas. I watched many tutorials on sewing with Sunbrella before I attempted to make an awning. I used the pencil, but I believe the light colored beige fabric I was using made it difficult for the white soapstone to be visible. I think it will work better for someone who is working with a dark colored canvas like navy blue, or cobalt blue, or possibly red. I may use it in the future to mark other dark colored outdoor waterproof canvas.

Great price

Certain fabrics it is great for but in general chalk works better.

Have used for over a year, still working very well, good product

Fast delivery, great for using on material that won't be ironed before washing. If you do iron over this pencil, it's not the terrible mess that a wax pencil would make, but it may leave a mark on your fabric. Just be careful, but it's a great marking pencil.

genius! but it broke easily. still useable, but I wish it were a bit more durable.

Great on canvas, not so great on leather or vinyl. Or quilting cotton. Yeah, canvas is the only thing I can use this soapstone marking pencil on. So, I give it a meh rating.

Pretty blunt 'out-of-box'. so had to sharpen with blade. Marking green cordura fabric, had to make at least x2 runs to make an impression, and make adequate visible mark. Then the back retainer tip popped-out, while in use, so it could not take the pressure i was exerting, but pushed it back in, and made careful pressure exerted. Overall adjustments were not expected, but served its purpose i guess.

Just didn't work, too hard. I'll stick to what I normally use.

Love it

GREAT...LOVE THEM...
