Snow Scene in fabric paint and thread


This is a quick little piece I just did , machine applique, fabric paint and rayon threads.
I used the expanding heat sensitive paint and fabric pens. I wasn't to impressed with the puffiness I thought it would be thicker but it's the first time I used it too . Any thoughts on using puff paint would be appreciated.

Mary, it's a lovely piece! What size is it? Sorry, I've never used those paints so can't offer any advice.

Hi Mary, what brand are you using?? Some brands work better than others.

Love your blog, btw! I really like your latest piece, too.

Sorry, forgot to mention. I have also used puff paint and I am wondering if your problem is the thickness. I did a piece with a tree and was really quite happy with it.
I've also used Xpandaprint and this works nicely as well.
