So what you did could also be done with a light or medium shade pen, drawing from dot to dot (carefully, of course!) before stitching. I think it would be very good for single line or fine text.

Since it was basically unreadable before I colored it in, I wasn't too concerned if it ruined it, as I'd have to start over anyway! But it worked quite well. I colored very carefully, and I actually colored the paper, not the threads, as that was the only way to really darken it enough. It does take a steady hand, I'll admit, but the results were so worth it, to see the words POP like they needed to!! Katharine, it did color the paper also.

I would have expected it to colour the card and spoil the stitching. Did the Sakura just colour the thread and not the card Jolis?
