My fat quarters that I used paintsticks on at the Monday Mickey Depre workshop have dried. Tonight I ironed them to set the paint.
Here are the results!
1. White fat quarter. We divided our FQ into 12 sections with painters tape. Mickey taught us 4 ways to use paintsticks and then we tried each way in 3 boxes using various paints and templates underneath.
I’m thinking I could use these on fabric postcards for a base.
2. Black fat quarter. After our tutoring work on the white piece we were free to choose whichever method of application we wanted to decorate our black piece.
3. Pink hand dye. Part of our kit fee also included our choice of a fat quarter from Mickey’s selection!
Yummy!! Her dh dyes her fabrics! Imagine that!!
I was surprised at how much I liked the metallic paints even tho I don’t normally choose glitz.
The workshop was so informative! It was great to try her paints and learn the methods before investing in the paints.
However, being near Blick’s on Wednesday with my discount-card-carrying-dd was enough to get me started.
New to your blog. Found the use of paintsticks interesting. I like the looks!
