drawings for crayon quilts
I am currently working with a new group of friends who live in a
nursing home. I wanted to involve them in creating some wall hangings for their lobby area but many of them are not able to sew any more. The activity director said they like to color so I thought I would print outlines on fabric and let them color the scenes which I would sew into a wallhanging. Does anyone know of a good sourse for such pictures? I know I have seen them in the past but can't find them now. I wanted something more adult than the ordinary coloring book pictures. Thanks, Susan |

How about books of clip art? You could enlarge them to an appropriate size and let your friends color those. Even if they are not too steady and color outside the lines (gasp) you can always trim the picture. Hmmmm. I might try that myself. I do love to color. Morag in Detroit Morag Morag in Detroit |

actually looked quite nice. Betty "MoragP" wrote in message ... Does anyone know of a good sourse for such pictures? How about books of clip art?
