I know, right? On Muslin, she used "plain old colored pencils"- the kinds you buy at Walmart- and fabric medium. Muslin is a cheaper fabric, the colored pencils will be on sale in a month or two for back to school sales, and my bottle of fabric medium has lasted me forever. Anyone can do this!!!
But, seriously, at the show they had patterns that were already quilted for the outline ready for people to purchase, for those that felt that they couldn't quilt their own outside border to color in.
The Satin projects she said the colored pencils didn't work, but she used the Shiva Paint sticks.
I've had success with any watercolor pencils and fabric medium, but my work isn't anywhere near this level. I'm just a baby trying his first word, while Irena is a world class poet!

Thank you so much for sharing the photos. I wanted to go to this quilt show so much but since my quilting buddy moved away there was no one to go with me and it would have been just too lonely to go by myself. Maybe next year. Thanks again for the photos!!
