It is my favourite way to keep track of what I’ve stitched and haven’t stitched. You can just use your finger or there are other cheaper alternatives to the Apple Pencil that it might be worth investigating.
I NEVER use a pen or a colored marker on my pattern. What happens if you accidentally place your piece you are stitching on on the top of that paper. Ink dies not dry super fast!! And you could ruin your piece. Markers are dangerous also. I only use pencil. I usually send my finished pieces to the dry cleaners when I’m finished. Pencil is no problem for them to get out. Also keep your hands really clean. NEVER use lotion of any kind on your hands. It will seep out of your pores. And many times even the cleaners cannot get it out!!
Good points. If I’m marking a paper pattern I often use pencil in case I make a mistake and need to erase it, but I prefer having the pattern on my iPad for marking so no danger of any ink or pencil marks on my work.
I never thought to use my iPad to keep track. Such a great idea ☺️
It’s my favourite way to stop me losing my place on patterns 😊
