I posted a video the other day demonstrating how to embellish using paintstiks. I’ve also just found some terrific tutorials and projects you can do using paintstiks.
First stop should be Cedar Canyon Textiles – The Paintstik Place where you’ll find all sorts of information about paintstiks. Stop by their Learning Center for lessons, tutorials and videos.
Fembellish also has a few nice tutorials and projects demonstrating how to use paintstiks – Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3.
And if that isn’t enough, you can find instructions and a project on the Stitch website.
I think by the time you’re done with all this information, you should have a really good idea about all the different ways you can use paintstiks – get creative and have some fun with it!
This post is part of the 30 Days of Titivations; a 30 day blogathon all about embellishing and embellishments.
You can find lots of free embellishment tutorials in the tutorials section of my blog which can be found here, and even more techniques can be found on my Titivations DVD. Please visit the Instructional DVD section of the store for full details.
Manipulating fabric is a very creative way to embellish fabric. Fabric with three dimensional texture always looks interesting and can often look amazing.
Who does embellishing better than crazy quilters? Crazy quilting is a lovely way to relax and enjoy some creative handwork. If you’ve never tried it before, check out the sites below; you just might get hooked.
