Fabric Collage ~ Creative Art Quilt Process ep 3
In this video, I use fusible to create the background and first layer of the opossum, and I add some enhancement with Inktense. This quilt is taking a long time, primarily due to some life changes. While the collage part of the process is not completed, the remainder are details will use different techniques that I will share in another video soon.

      I usually let it air dry before heat setting it. That way, any liquid still sitting on the surface won't get moved around. I also put a scrap of cotton over the artwork just to protect it from anything on the iron because I use the same iron with spray starch, etc.

  • @ellenpayson3104
    @ellenpayson3104 8 місяців тому

    I haven’t tried Inktense yet but with watercolor pencils you can wet the “lead” of the pencil, allow it to sit for a very short while, then color with it. It’s a third way to use the medium and it gives a surprising intensity of color on a dry background. It is good for laying in texture, fine detail, depth and richer hues. Also, concerning he use of electric pencil sharpeners on colored pencils of any type, I totally agree with you. I have also found that most electric sharpeners will fracture the “lead” of colored pencils up inside of the barrel resulting in unexplained broken leads and wasted money. Electric sharpeners are just too rough on such fragile materials.

    Thank you for posting this! I am a tie-dyer, and am starting to include more detailed art in some of my pieces. I have the Inktense watercolors and the Inktense blocks. When you Heat-Set the Inktense colors... does that mean that the colors will NOT re-activate if you add water? For instance, let's say I add a bird to a floral-patterned tie-dye fabric, activating it with water... when does that image become "permanent"? When it is dry?? Or only when it it is heat-set?? Thanks again for taking the time to film this and post it <3

    • @sewliloquies
      @sewliloquies 11 місяців тому

      Yes, heat setting (or even allowing it to dry) makes Inktense permanent. It can safely be washed!

  • @sangeetadeshpande9113
    @sangeetadeshpande9113 Рік тому

    Pl show how you heat set it. Do you directly iron it, or you use some thing between fabric and iron. Is there any thing below your fabric?

    • @sewliloquies
      @sewliloquies Рік тому

      Hello! Underneath is any heat safe surface (anything that can be used to iron on). On top of the fabric, I place a piece of scrap cotton. However, directly ironing the Inktense doesn't damage the image in any way, and I have ironed the artwork directly. If there is a lot of moisture still, it is important to keep the iron still and not move it around, otherwise the moisture will spread and might change the image.
