Sometimes I will paint on a quilt if I think I need a little more shadow or contrast in the design. I use Decoart Americana so soft (SS) fabric paint. I used to work for that company and did a lot of traveling for them teaching etc. YOu can wash and it remains nice a soft like the fabric.
I will also paint blocks to include in quilts. I will dig some out later and take pics. Here is a butterfly quilt that one of my painter friends painted and I made into a quilt for her and it travels to all the painting convention.....I will find the file of the entire quilt later..
If you any of you are folk artists/ decorative artist...you might recognize these blocks as Doxie Keller's painting....
