I had a question about how I made the framed clematis quilt with WonderUnder. I'll describe how I did it here, but I don't have any photos of the process.
I start with WonderUnder, which is a fusible adhesive in a sheet, and irridescent Shiva Paintstiks, which are oil paints in stick form. I use the paintstiks to color the WonderUnder all over in colors I think I will use. I try to blend the colors to give myself a larger range to work with later. I then plan my design on a background piece of fabric and cut out the WonderUnder, peeled away from the backing sheet, into the shapes I need. I lay out all the shapes on my fabric and then use parchment paper and an iron to press them to the fabric. I use metallic threads to thread-paint the picture and then layer it with backing and batting and quilt the piece around the shapes and in the background.
