Frixon Magic Pens

Trish Burr has found a pen that is erased by heat.  It's the Frixon Magic pen by Pilot, manufactured in Japan.

I was concerned that Trish's find might not be available in the United States but I see them for sale on Amazon. Here is a bit more about them from the Pilot pen website.  Trish used the Frixion Point.

I would proceed with caution but these might be just what you are looking for if you transfer a lot of patterns to canvas and linen.  But beware, put your piece in the freezer and the lines reappear!

How many of us put our work in the freezer if we aren't trying to get creases out of linen by dampening it and freezing it briefly?
