I use the dritz or the cheap ones from walmarts. The main thing is that I want to caution you on; DON'T iron on them or it sets it; you'll never get the blue out and that also goes for leaving it in the sun, heat will make them permanent.

I just made a Thanksgiving table runner for mom for Bday. I used the Crayola washable markers. I used blue on the light blue fabric that rinsed out in cold water in the sink. I used brown on the print fabric. Some of it rinsed out. I didn't feel like walking out to the laundry room so I just turned around and picked up the baby shampoo. The brown came out with baby shampoo and warm water. Not a problem. Boy was that water an ugly color though. Lot of rinsing to make sure it was all out of the batting and muslin backing. Mom loved both table runners.
