Love these chalk pens! They work great for marking stencils on my quilts. They are think enough to fit into the stencils and the white shows up very well on the dark areas of my quilts.

I'm currently making 40 small zipper pouches only 4"x4" with a design embroidered on the front. The fabric is a deep purple and marking the design placement is critical for lining it up on the stabilizer which has a temporary adhesive sprayed on it. Both my wax tailor's chalk and clay chalk made lines too thick even after sharpening them. The white fabric marking pen I tried was a flop and I have never had a wooden tailor's pencil that could be sharpened and end up with a tip that didn't break off right away.This fine line automatic pencil was my last resort and it is working perfectly. The embroidery lines up with little or no needle position adjustment and, after it is completed, I use the pencil with the template I made from posterboard to mark the outline for trimming the piece to the exact size, the zipper placement and the two fold lines all at one time. It is saving me hours of working with various rulers and making clip markings which I previously did.The chalk does seem to use up quickly but that is the nature of chalk. The chalk came off easily when I used a Q-Tip dipped in water. One review said there was an issue using the pencil on light weight fabric. I am using Kona Cotton which has a tighter weave to it, but I think it will work just fine with any good quilter' s cotton. I would pretest for use on synthetics or cotton-poly fabrics.Amazon doesn't seem to have a seller for the refills Dritz makes, but Joann fabrics says they carry it and I also can get it from Wawak where I get some of my other tailoring and dressmaking supplies (they also give a discount on quantity purchases of some items).I am so pleased with this pencil that I am considering buying one for each color of chalk so I don't have to spend time changing it in the same pencil.One additional note: When the chalk piece doesn't advance anymore don't pull it out and toss it away. Just insert a new piece in the barrel from the top and keep advancing it until it meets the old piece. It may take a few tries to get the old piece stable at the end, but it will be usable until the new piece closes the gap inside the barrel. My dressmaking instructor years ago was a stickler for not wasting and 50 years later I still have the habit of keeping a fabric scrap stash, vintage (by now) patterns and pre-threaded hand sewing needles in umpteen colors of thread I think I should keep just in case something needs a button sewn on or a seam resewn because the thread "is still good".
