I had the same experience with the Sharpie pen on light fabric,
but realized what looked like marks on the fabric was actually bits of the Press 'n Seal stuck under the stitches.... I was able to remove those with a tweezer, but a strip of sticky tape would probably work well too. Mickie Pat, I used a Sharpie pen, which is supposed to be permanent.

Happy New Year, everyone! Been very busy lately. For PNS scraps that
remain under the stitching, cover with a paper towel and press lightly with a very warm. not hot, iron. It melts and disappears. Worked for me. Nancycog in MD |
