Try Jacquard Textile Color or Jacquard Lumiere (metallics), paints by Stewart Gill, or the soft body Liquitex paints. Don't water them down with water or they will bleed. You can add fabric medium to extend them (make them go farther and keep them from drying as quickly).Susan Brubaker Knapphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16490050360258082767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089615911925785137.post-75403640124919488932009-12-07T11:35:55.530-05:002009-12-07T11:35:55.530-05:00The orchid pieces are stunning!

I do photography, paint w/acrylics & oils--though I haven't painted yet from one of my photos, and I quilt. I am so pulled to art quilts but haven't attempted painting on fabric to then quilt. Do you thin your acrylics so that the fabric doesn't become so stiff that, in my mind, would not be quiltable?Tere Tomlinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03158418659387982198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5089615911925785137.post-10173461839460468442009-12-04T23:30:10.955-05:002009-12-04T23:30:10.955-05:00Wonderful piece.
