Heat Erasable Pen
- Mark, sew, erase, repeat: clean, fine lines for darts, pleats, buttonholes, quilting guides
Two ways to remove: built-in eraser or a touch of heat/steam from your iron
Low-mess alternative to chalk: no dust, no smears
Non-toxic & fabric-friendly (always test on a scrap first)
Great on light fabrics: cotton poplin, lawn, linen blends, many jerseys
Meet your new favourite marking tool for neat seams and crisp top-stitching. This heat-erasable pen glides on smoothly, wipes away with the built-in eraser - (No I didn't know that either) and disappears with a cool iron (or the steam from your iron). It’s a brilliant alternative to tailor’s chalk—especially on light-coloured fabrics where you want a fine line without the dust.
Like sewists and their sacred scissors, every fabric has a personality. Different dyes and finishes can react differently to marking tools, so always do a quick scrap test first. If it passes the test, you’re golden: mark, sew, press, poof—gone.

How to use
Test on a scrap of the same fabric (check it fully disappears).
Mark your lines. Sew happily.
Remove by:
Pressing: touch with a cool/warm iron or a puff of steam, or
Rubbing: use the built-in eraser to lift the line.
If a faint “ghost” remains, press again with a press cloth, or lightly dab with water, then press dry.
Additional Information
Helpful notes (so you don’t swear at your fabric)
-
Light fabrics only: on dark or highly saturated dyes, some pens can “ghost”—test first.
-
Cold can bring lines back: some heat-erasable inks can reappear in very cold temperatures. If that happens, a quick re-press sends them packing again.
-
Finishes matter: stain-resistant or coated surfaces may hold a shadow—again, scrap test is your friend.
-
Press cloth = peace of mind on delicate fibres (silk, viscose, specialty finishes).#
Perfect for
-
Dressmaking (darts, pleats, pocket placement)
-
Quilting (grid lines, echo stitching)
-
Top-stitching guides on cottons and lawns
-
Embroidery transfer on light fabrics
