Slow Stitching
Explore what can happen when you paint Inktense Blocks on fabric and then slow stitch it with a mash up of stitches
Experimenting with a brand new set of Inktense Blocks is like getting the big box of Crayola Crayons for the first time. Inktense Blocks are solid sticks of intense pigment that can dissolve in water but keep their vibrant colors. They can be rubbed or painted on fabric or other surfaces producing intense colors. I can’t wait to experiment with their potential to easily dye fabrics.
