my aunt used to make artex painted quilts over 20 years ago. She made a crib quilt for me as a baby, then either a twin or double size one when I was 2. My aunt died on my 3rd birthday. I have given my baby quilt to my now 2 year old son. I used to use artex to make pictures on fabric for small projects in my late pre-teens and very early teens. I have recently become interested again in artex painting but can’t seem to find any locally. I went and asked at wal-mart today. They told me to try Curry’s art store, they don’t carry them, and Michael’s craft store, they don’t carry them either. I found a couple on ebay, but I was hoping more to be able to buy them instore instead of online. Also does anyone know a good place to find colouring book quality simple pictures to use as templates for the artex paints, aside from colouring books? I doubt that I am going to find any of the old artex transfers anywhere around here. My aunt used animals from colouring books for my baby quilt.
