I made this outfit for a lady's daughter; she's in a pageant. I used regular fabric chalk to mark the buttonholes, but there are still a few marks showing. The lady has washed to blouse twice and there are still two stains on it. They have to be out by day's end. Help me! -Danielle |

If it is washable try Oxiclean. I have used it on many stains & most have come out. Wet the area, sprinkle on Oxiclean then wash as usual. you may need to rub it in a little. I have gotten out year old grass & grease stains with this method I think it should work for chalk.
