Varchar Encoding in MySQL

Question
I am coming to MySQL from MS SQL. It was my understanding that in order to store International Characters, I need to declare a field as varchar with UTF-8 character set.
I am using Sequel Pro to develop MySQL database. When I manually enter international characters into a field in my table, it does not understand it and turns it into questions marks (?????).
Could someone please point me into the right direction?
La solution
Simple example,
ALTER TABLE t MODIFY col1 CHAR(50) CHARACTER SET utf8;
