    Default Fabric for coloring?

    Annie's advertised this on line a couple of days ago. There were several styles, some of which look like pages from the coloring books which are so popular now. I believe it was about $14 a yard. Forgive me if this has been discussed already, but I am wondering if anyone has purchased/used this product. Just curious about the process and results if any of you have used it in a quilt. Again, my apologies if this post is redundant.

    i purchased some coloring fabric last year to use in quilts for my grand daughters. the fabric is specially treated, it's recommended you don't prewash. color and set color as you would any coloring of fabric with crayons. my only issue is the girls had decided watercolor painting on glossy photoprinting paper their daddy gave them was waaaayyyy more fun than coloring. even if it was fabric with "awsome" space ships & aliens

    I have crayon-colored on muslin, setting color by pressing. Haven't seen this particular product.

    Interesting concept especially getting children involved in making a quilt.
