I wanted o experiment with Inktense Pencils on this baby quilt. I used an Aunt martha iron-on embroidery pattern which I traced with permanent Sharpie markers. Then I colored them in with inktense pencils. These colored pencils when wet with the paintbrush convert to a water-fast ink. Heat set by ironing, I then set them simply into a scraps from he sewing room floor quilt and stpiile-quilted then washed to shrink. The colors remained. I distressed it lightly with some coffe stains, to make it appear to be from the 60's.
