    Wasn't Tri-Chem paint in a tube to mimic embroidery?

    I am in awe! This is an amazing quilt. The butterflies look so real. I'm almost speechless!!! I can't find the right words to describe how wonderful it is.

    Yes Tri-Chem was paint in a tube & you held the tube (had to put a round 1" long semi hard plastic) and painted like you were coloring, there was a lot of colors & you could free hand or buy cloths printed & fill them in. They had parties like Tupperware ect. It was fun.
