I have been ...Thank you so much for posting this!! I have been coloring with crayons on material. Almost the same process, it helps to color in with white before adding your other colors. The "set" is the same, except I use a piece of muslin to cover the crayoning, the "wax" part is pulled onto the muslin as well as a little color. I have used those muslin pieces in different projects!<br /> I have also experimented with melting the crayon onto the fabric and spreading it with a small paintbrush. Talk about WORK!! I cannot wiat to use my Prisma colored pencils!! I have the Gardener's Alphabet, they are designed for crayon, but I am going to use the Prisma pencils.<br /><br /> Your work is, as always, beautiful! You are certainly blessed with wonderful talent. I am so thankful that you share your talent with all of us!<br /><br />shannon+Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-52545125997518331672014-03-27T08:05:23.578+10:002014-03-27T08:05:23.578+10:00Achei maravilhso, deu muita vida no bordado, vou t...Achei maravilhso, deu muita vida no bordado, vou tentar fazer<br />Eliane Sousahttp://www.littlepiecescasa.blogspot.com.brnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-45589631143364680922014-03-27T06:49:04.020+10:002014-03-27T06:49:04.020+10:00I have fabric crayons and pencils ...

They do leave a vibrancy that pencils don't...but personally I love the naive look of the pencils.

I have a favorite kind of pencil, too - Caran d'ache. I think it would do really well, but I need to check on how it does on fabric - if it can be heat set - because I use it for marking quilting lines and I know they come out.

Have you tried InkTense Pencils/sticks? They work dry, wet with water or clear aloe vira gel and once dry and heat set are permanent and do not wash out! I use the InkTense for a lot of my fiber art and am very pleased with the results. You can do a dry color and then take a brush to wet that area with water, if you wish for it to spread like watercolor OR you can brush clear aloe vira gel and the color intensifies but the aloe keeps it from spreading. You will want to use a clear aloe as those with color changes the color of the InkTense.<br />Wishing you all the best - Terri at the Drake's Nest in Palm Bay, FLTerri - Palm Bay, FLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01562779093178286335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5738183327129723042.post-49119229250780239522014-03-26T00:23:54.674+10:002014-03-26T00:23:54.674+10:00Lovely Jenny - lots of depth in the colour and it ...Lovely Jenny - lots of depth in the colour and it is going to be so pretty when you have finished the stitching.
