Using crayons and markers to draw on fabric block....
I was reading in a tip in a magazine about having kids color on a fabric block and then quilt the squares together. Of course it was just a tip and they said they used crayons and that's it. I want to do the same thing with my GD's and finally make a quilt for myself instead of everyone else! So I am wondering....which is better...crayons or markers? Which washes out? Which "holds color" longer and doesn't smear or fade or wash out?
ANyone have any suggestions, thoughts, or tips on this? I have a GD coming today, she is 11 so her "coloring" days are nearly over, so I am going to have her do one of each, but at the same time, I can't experiment and wash them and then have her do them again...she lives to far away. I could mail a block I guess...but still...
Anyone got ideas?
