 Block #13 for the Holiday Stitch along. I tried a new chalk pencil to mark with. It is the blue chalk pencil from Bohin. The opposite side is white for dark fabrics. I tried to erase a mistake right after I drew it and it didn't come off completely, but has since worn away. The color seems to wear away a little as I stitch, which I think I like. I can still see the markings, but hope it will wash out easily. I had previously been using a regular pencil which wears down/lightens with stitching as well. I need to test the final step of washing the blocks to see how the chalk and pencil come out of the fabric.
