I love your work. I enjoyed watching you do the t-cup. I am anxious to try this. I have been wanting another outlet for my creative side. Thank you so much for sharing with us.
Thank you. I’ve had a set of the Ink pens for a year and didn’t even know where or how to begin. Such a privilege to have someone with your talent to break it down into tasks with good explanations on the “whys” it is done in a particular manner.
Thank you Emily. I have never seen this done before with Inktense watercolor pencils. After your live today , 4-1-2024, I looked this video up. Now I just have to get those inktense pencils. I have ordered them from Amazon. Thank you, Thank you.
I have the ink tense pencils but have been a bit anxious about using…this was a timely video for me. Thank you. I purchased the clementine collage pdf and wondered how you might use - brilliant!
The blue pup is adorable. I think I need to get some pencils! It would be helpful if you made a test sample and used every pencil with water and label the pencil color.
Thank you for this video! I have had a set of Inktense but have been reluctant to use them. No longer!! Have signed up for the group via FB. There is more fun to be had!!
Thank you Emily for another great demo. With watercolor being one of my favorite artistic mediums, I just absolutely love how the Inktense pencils performed on the fabrics! Looking forward to your upcoming 2023 designs etc. Cheers! 🫖☕️❄️, Jo
Huge fan of inktense.❤️ they are special. So vibrant. I've had the fun pencils for years and last year I picked up the paints. Always glad to see a new video using them. Thank you for sharing your beautiful work.
It's not permanent. It fades after the first wash . If you mix it with textile medium it dulls down the colours. I've tried this. Ink tense on fabric. After one wash it fades the colours and wash out. Not everything but definitely most of the colour. Was disappointed because it loses its vibrancy
if you use the fabric mediums correctly it shouldn't fade. did you pre wash, and post heat set? you need to heat set fabric mediums. i use acrylic media w acrylic fabric medium and it never fails. even watercolour itself, let alone watercolour pencils. if you utilize the chemical properties of the material you're using you should never run into longevity issues in art. longevity is almost always due to incorrect chemical processes
I've done a lot of watercolor painting, and I just feel comfortable using water. It's just personal preference, and sometimes I like the bleed that water provides.
I love your work. I’m definitely going to be a student of yours. Word of loving advise, please try to curtail the too May “um’s”. I’m sorry I don’t want to make you feel bad in any way.
@@CollageQuilter I would very much like to see that too. I waited until the end because you said you were going to demo inktense in eyes and then I guess you ran out of time.
Just curious as to why I can't save this video to Pinterest. I can save videos from other people, but not from you. Do you have permissions set so that they cannot be saved?
They are underway and Emily is hard at work trying to get them finished! They'll be a bit different from our usual patterns, so they'll take a little longer to be ready. We are hoping to be able to release them around spring/summer

Great idea. I love my Inktense pencils but didn’t think of using it on collage.
Those quilts are gorgeous, it's art in the full sense of the word

Really enjoyed watching. i hope to find time this year to practice this technique..
Cool video! I have to watch the rest, but so far I like what I'm seeing. Thank you!
Awesome, thank you!
The tea cup is a cute piece ❤
Hi from Texas. Awesome. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you very much for this tutorial
Thanks! I've been using the Inktense for a few years, but I did not know about the aloe vera gel being a possible medium! That's great to know!
Glad it was helpful!
Great video, thank you.
Beautiful work, it is so very inspiring
Thank you! Cheers!
Hello from the Yukon Canada..near Alaska…
I love the fair in Amelia’s blouse. Looks quilted.
Thanks! I love it so much I’m taking it to wear in California 😂
Good morning from Maui!
Beautiful!!!!!!!❤❤❤
Thank you!!
Great video! Would love to meet you at Road to California!!!😊
Thank you for another great video! @CollageQuilter , have you used the Inktense 'blocks' on bigger projects/areas, or are the pencils just fine?
It's not permanent. It fades after the first wash . If you mix it with textile medium it dulls down the colours. I've tried this. Ink tense on fabric. After one wash it fades the colours and wash out. Not everything but definitely most of the colour. Was disappointed because it loses its vibrancy
if you use the fabric mediums correctly it shouldn't fade. did you pre wash, and post heat set? you need to heat set fabric mediums.
i use acrylic media w acrylic fabric medium and it never fails. even watercolour itself, let alone watercolour pencils.
if you utilize the chemical properties of the material you're using you should never run into longevity issues in art. longevity is almost always due to incorrect chemical processes
This has not been my experience. Ensure you use a fabric medium and always prep your fabric
Beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you! 😊
does this technique work well for making a quilt label?
Useful. Check your settings everything is backwards….
It's because we're filming on a computer camera and unfortunately can't change it! We will be updating out streaming equipment soon though
Why don’t you use textile medium for more control?
I've done a lot of watercolor painting, and I just feel comfortable using water. It's just personal preference, and sometimes I like the bleed that water provides.

How much is the smaller set?
Looks like a great video. Beautiful work, but how do you get the benefit of seeing the work in progress when the screen is split?
Noted!
People have stated you have a video using ink tense pencils on animal eyes. Where can I locate in your library?
We don't have a video yet on creating animal eyes with inktense, but it's on our list!
@@CollageQuilter I would very much like to see that too. I waited until the end because you said you were going to demo inktense in eyes and then I guess you ran out of time.
Just curious as to why I can't save this video to Pinterest. I can save videos from other people, but not from you. Do you have permissions set so that they cannot be saved?
Hmm... I just checked our privacy settings and you should be good to go!
What happens when you wash the fabric with the inktens after you used the iron?
I have found that it fades slightly-- but the more you apply, the less likely it is to fade out over time.
Tongue twister, ink TENTs or ink TINTS?
Ink Tense ;)
How long have you been doing this? Just curious.
I began my journey as a collage quilter in 2018
where can I purchase the pencils
Would be really nice if in the title on youtube there was also mention of inktense
Thank you for the feedback! Just updated it.
does this work good for quilt labels?
Probably-- Although, I would always TEST before you jump in. You may not like the way they look with only Inktense.
What is status of release of Rooster patterns?
They are underway and Emily is hard at work trying to get them finished! They'll be a bit different from our usual patterns, so they'll take a little longer to be ready. We are hoping to be able to release them around spring/summer
Hola 😮
I have found natural bristle brushes work much better than nylon bristles with the ink tense pencils and the blocks
Thanks for sharing that info!
Love your drawings/paintings, however, the videos are backwards. All the fonts/texts read backwards.
The working screen is too small
Why didnt you swatch your pencils when you got them so you knew what the colors looked like from the get go??
Love watching your tutorials, Emily. But you forgot to switch the screen. All writing is backward to the viewer.
