Default How to shade wool pieces on an applique piece

Hi ! I am doing one of four mini quilt hangings by Granny's Legacy Patterns. I am currently doing one for autumn. The mini pieces of wool appliqué pieces have been colored to give shading and depth.

Tonight I tried tulip fabric markers and included blotting with alcohol afterwards. That did nothing. The tulip fabric markers by themselves did nothing.

I hesitate to try crayons, wax paper and iron heat because I am not sure how the wool fabric will respond.

Has anyone tried to shade wool?I have seen all these four season mini's done at a show and they looked great! Any suggestions? I am thinking I can also call the shop or possibly a local wool supplier to see if they have any hints.

TIA Anne
