Your work is so exciting, Tania! Thank you for doing this video, Lisa. Loved your talk at Quilters Connection in Massachusetts recently. Thanks for zooming with us. Your enthusiasm is contagious. And your work is glorious.

[@LisaWaltonArtist]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@susanbuckingham4981]

Love the improvised painted quilts. Do you find it hard to quilt through the paint? Acrylic paint? What size/type needle?

[@janeausten007]

Thanks Susan. I use a 90/14 needle and I don't find it hard to quilt through the paint. Once I've heat set it I don't find them to thick to quilt through. They can be difficult when u unpick because you can see the holes but I iron and wriggle the fabric a bit which helps to get it back to some normality before I go again.

[@LisaWaltonArtist]

thanks for watching

[@Flatshader]

Your colors are so vibrant, what paints are you using?

[@janeausten007]

Thanks Valerie. All the paints are fabric paint. My favourite is Marabu but I also use Permaset, Jacquard, Hi-Strike and mix them amongst each other.

[@Flatshader]

Thank you so much!

[@LisaWaltonArtist]

thanks for watching

[@abpgrace]

And, while I'm asking, what type of fabric and brushes does she use?

[@janeausten007]

Calico and just cheap brushes generally a bit if trial and error.

[@abpgrace]

Thank you Tania for taking the time to answer these questions. Your painted quilts are very beautifully intuitive and a welcome relief for those of us who prefer organic shapes sans patterns to follow!

[@LisaWaltonArtist]

thanks

[@abpgrace]

What type of paint does Tania use?

[@janeausten007]

All the paints I use are fabric paints. My favourite is Marabu but I also use Jaquard, Permaset and Hi-Strike

[@LisaWaltonArtist]
