For marking on dark fabric i use a Japanese chalk wheel, which is fantastic - draws a very fine line and brushes off easily - or very soft school kid's chalk in bright colors - makes a slightly thicker line and also brushes off easily.
I have not yet found the "perfect" tool for marking on white and other very light fabric. I sometimes use soft school kid's chalk in a somewhat darker color (i tend to use a medium blue), but i worry about it staining the fabric. I also sometimes use a very soft graphite pencil when i am certain the lines will be hidden by the stitching.
