That looks like fun! But I would've been afraid to mess up such beautiful quilting.

Love the feathers. Is there a tutorial showing how to do the painting around feathers anywhere?

Thank you all! The painting isn't so hot, hahahaha, but I would like to do some soft paint behind feathers on a quilt and some soft shading on the feathers. I LOVE these!!! I think they definetly take some practice though, I am SO not ready to use them on a "real" project!

Shiva Paintstik's - but I think any brand would work as long as they are oil paint and NOT oil pastels. :)

I'm not sure - but I can tell you all I did was take a soft brush with a little (I mean a very little!) bit of paint on it and rub it around the feathers. For deeper colors use a stiffer brush (usually a stencil brush is recommended).

I wish I could do feathers like that. I keep trying. Really like the look of the paint sticks.
