[quote=Toto's Mom]I, too, am a painter as well as a quilter. I had used acrylics with fabric mediums, even painted motocross riders on some jeans for my son when he was young, but it stiffened that area but I love the look of your watercolors.

Did you use like a Dupioni silk? I have some Thai silk that I might have to try this on with watercolors. LOVE your beautiful results! :thumbup:[/quote



I love duponi, didn't like painting on muslin, I 'd be interested how the Thai silk works up.

I found the watercolor kept the hand of the silk,, where the acrylic, no matter how much mediumm you use, stiffens.
