I kept reading about these magic markers in blogs. I was in Spotlight yesterday - and I spotted a Hera marker! $15 - I nearly swooned (and not in the fun fabric way). I gritted my teeth and forked out what seemed a lot of money for a very unassuming looking tool. Happily the story ends well. It does (miraculously) work amazingly well for marking quilting lines:
I'm going to try and get the binding on this this evening - I'm excited to finish this project!
I've heard of Hera markers too but I didn't realise they left such a distinct line! Must look out for one - maybe at the next Spotlight sale :) Looking forward to seeing this quilt finished!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your new hera! I love using mine. It really helps to get nice straight lines. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.
ReplyDeleteThanks to Nicole (above commenter!) I got a hera & it's made all the difference, especially with my curvy quilting!
ReplyDeleteI only use mine when turning things the right way out to get curves nice and neat. One of these days I'll actually finish a quilt and use it for its intended purpose!
ReplyDeleteI just bought Hera marker from Spottie the other day too as I needed to mark lines on a mini quilt!
