Day 1 (of 3) : Fabric Painting Workshop with Mickey Lawler

This weekend, I'm doing a 3-day workshop with Mickey Lawler of Sky Dyes. The Workshop is sponsored by The Darting Needles Quilt Guild in Appleton, WI. I've had her book and the paints for about 3 years now, but haven't done any of the projects until today!

Blue Skies (Not a great photo, but this is my favorite piece of the day.)




Scrunched Fabrics.


We're using Pebeo Setacolor Textile Paints. They need to develop in the sun in order to maintain depth and brilliance. Good thing we had a bright sunny day!
