I started out with with a scrap of white materials that I knew could be broad adequate to make two pillow fronts, and laid it out on an enormous cardboard discipline scrap I had. I then started randomly painting strains {with a foam brush} every horizontally and vertically with three colors of Nation Fashionable Paint. I started with Devotion {pink}. Subsequent I layered on strains with Liquorice {black} after which adopted with additional strains in Sweet Pea {inexperienced}, all the whereas creating the look of a plaid pattern! I wasn’t trying to find perfection as I needed it to clearly appear like painted materials – just about like a watercolor influence, only a bit additional opaque, and I didn’t want good strains.
