How to Use Markers on Fabric

You can draw on fabric with markers. Any type of marker colors on most fabrics, but not all types stay after washing. Fabric markers can be used to draw pictures on napkins, shirts, tablecloths, purses or anything else---all while withstanding several wash cycles. You can also use the markers to complete designs or to fill in gaps. Buy fabric markers at most craft or sewing stores. They show better on solid, light colors than patterns and dark colors.
