cookie cutters
 
I use anything that is sturdy enough to draw around for my quilt designs. Ive used Gingerbread cookie cutters and snow flakes too..Havent had any problems as of yet..:)

I have used cutters for years to hand quilt mostly on baby quilts

I think it would be cool to do ginger bread men, trees, ornaments, etc., then decorate them like cookies for a wall hanging.

sandilee, I have also been thinking about using plastic scrapbooking templates.

raptureread, this is a wonderful idea. I could have my grandchildren pick out the fabric to use. It would be like us making cookies together but they will be cookies to remember. I could even by fabric makers for them to put their names on the ornaments.

JuneBillie, I have been collecting all my granddaughter's pictures that she has drawn to put on a quilt for her when she graduates from high school. She loves to draw. The only thing is I need to figure out how to get her drawings onto the fabric.

I have used cookie cutters, large coloring books, leaves off my tree outside & scrapbooking supplies.

Always works well and you can make all kinds of things. Kids or GKs like to do the drawing on the fusible to help out.
