Crayola quilts

I have some fabric croyons I believe I found at Walmart.
You could also let her color a picture and then copy it on to the photopaper. Then iron it on fabric .. a little masterpiece so to say.
Just my thoughts!

For Christmas this year I made handprint quilts for my daughters, with the help of the granddaughters. I painted fabric paint on their hands, the 4 month old baby we did her foot prints. We did this on muslin, then I gave each of the little girls another muslin square to draw on. I got Crayola fabric markers for them to draw with. Followed the direction exactly and nothing has washed off. Also wrote somes poems to go with the handprints and footprints. My daughters loved them.

I saved this idea from a very talented quilter. I hope she won't mind me posting/sharing her masterpiece! What she did is take drawings her grandchild did and then embroider the illustrations onto quilt blocks.
The drawings reminded me so much of my children's first drawings, that I kept the photo for reference. One day I'll find those old drawings and make a quilt like this. Isn't it cute?!!

Hello I helped my 5 year old g/d make a quilt for her mom with crayon colored blocks. We used the regular CRAYON brand crayons. She drew and colored 12 blocks of her choosing, mainly of her and her family, I ironed them when she was finished. Needless to say her mom was thrilled and she had a project of which she was very proud. blmclin

Wow! Thanks to all of you.
I guess I need to be a liitle more specific: how do you keep the crayon from bleeding into your ironing board cover, or bleeding out in some places where there's more color.
What kind of markers? Surely not the washable kind.
Thanks to you all.
