'Colouring In' for grown ups!



I was saving these small wholecloth patterns from my lilac cushion for my Granddaughter to colour in ....she soon lost interest....

But I find that a bit of colouring in is very therapeutic....you can do this when watching tv or at times when it's not appropriate to hide away in the quilt cave......it was difficult to colour as this is hard matt photographic paper....




Then I scanned it back into the computer and made it into a faux wholecloth.....





I like to print these out for greetings cards...of course you could also make this from a plain fabric and colour the fabric too.....someday maybe!

    I think it would be beautiful done as a hand painted whole cloth quilt.
