Reddit mentions of Pilot Frixion Colors Erasable Marker - 12 Color set /Value set Which Attached the Eraser Only for Friction

This one! is a great beginners tunic. Remember, cut once but measure twice. Use Frixion markers to mark up the fabric - they disappear when you iron but will come back in the freezer. They do wash out pretty easily.

The biggest thing to remember when cutting up the fabric is seam allowances - let's say you have a 38" chest. You want the fabric circumference to be ~39" when you wear it for some ease. For simplicities sake, it's better to cut the front and back rectangles for the body of the tunic at 20" each, giving you 40" pre-sew. Most people end up with only 1/4" seams so you'll have a slight bit more than 39".

However - very important other sewing rule- DO A MOCK UP! You will never know how horribly you have measured until you actually wear the pattern. Old sheets from the thrift store make awesome mock up materials. Cut out your pattern on that first. You often don't have to make up the entire thing - just the body of the garment. If it feels fine, great. If it's too big/too small pin, pinch, or draw where to expand as needed. Again, Frixion markers are amazing for those things.

Plain fabric is great fabric. Plain solid colors can always be embellished with some embroidery or trim. That print might look lovely to you, but I've seen far too many 100% 20th C/21st C toiles being used for garb (stories. Oh dear me, do I have stories) to know that suggesting anything other than plain fabric is a very, very bad idea.

If you get stuck, ask questions!

Well, I absolutely love Avery Alder's The Quiet Year. If you can, buy the physical cards and book, instead of the PDF. I usually play using these Frixion Pens, which are erasable in the most totally awesome way (not like those old "erasable pens" which just smudged, left a mess of dirty rubber, and ripped the paper...).

EDIT - Included a link to the game. Also, I should mention that I have almost exclusively played this game in bars. Themes and tone have varied widely from dark, brooding and tense to just plain ridiculous.

I got this set of erasable markers for a grateful journal. It's where you write down things you are grateful for to show that not all things suck. I love the markers and I really need to get back to doing that! I'm not sure why I stopped, except for the fact that I was grateful for the same things most days :)

I hope your hubby is able to tell them to shove off and get started building his dream.

Thanks! For this one, I used a Frixion Fineliner that I picked up in Japan. I've also used another frixion pen from this pack too: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F9MYPCS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1.

Not at all. It smears the writing a bit as it erases, then once you rub it enough, it turns completely clear/invisible.

I use these pens all day, every day and they have stood the test so far. I make a ton of mistakes usually when writing so these are a godsend.

Highlighters + Eraser

And to top it off, my favorite: the microwavable 'smart notepad'.

Again, the ink turns clear at 140°, so this notebook allows you to write notes in the notebook with the Frixion pens/markers/highlighters and "reset" it by microwaving it for a few seconds. Best part is, you can scan the pages into perfect PDFs with their app. And you can mark the page to tell it where to save it to (email, Google Drive, Dropbox, local save, etc.) It finally started to break my habit of taking notes and never going back to them with this a couple months ago. I'm super psyched on them and I just wanna spread the gospel of Frixion 😃
