Does the chalk wash out?

Yes. Dritz says the marks erase with a slightly damp cloth, and they also wash out in normal laundering. Test on a scrap first on delicate fabrics.

What chalk does it use?

It uses Dritz chalk wheel refills. The kit includes blue and white chalk, and the wheel is refillable.

Will it mark dark fabric?

Yes. The white chalk shows on dark fabric and the blue on light fabric, so the kit covers both.

Is it good for quilting?

It works well for tracing templates and marking quilting lines on cotton. The fine line is easier to follow than thick tailor's chalk.

Our take on the Dritz Chalk Wheel Kit

The Dritz Chalk Wheel Kit is a small plastic marking tool that presses a fine, even line of chalk onto fabric for sewing and quilting. It comes with blue and white chalk and refills, and the marks lift off with a slightly damp cloth. It weighs about 32 g, so it is light to hold over long marking sessions. At $12.98 at Chestnut Ridge Sewing as of November 7, 2026, it sits at the low end of its recent range across the six stores that list it new.
