Ouch!
Finding something that doesn't smudge the ink on fabric will be difficult.
I would try a small amount of diluted washing up liquid on a scrubbing pad and gentle scour the stain away.
Good luck x0 -
Ive tried diluted washin up liquid, did not work. The fabric has a silky finish. its a lovely beaded lampshade but i think its ruined now. THANKS 4 YOUR ADVICE.0

my mother always used to clean biro off with milk (then sponge off the milk with water) I seem to remember it worked better if it was blue biro.
hope this helps.0 -
