I took my kids to my mom's house and they brought out the chalk. I was practicing different quilting patterns with the kids earlier with a dry erase board and they had fun on the big driveway...lol...so did I.

Looks like fun. Wish I had the time tonight to take the chalk and the kids outside and draw. The quilting in your drive way is beautiful.

it's a fun way to practice and spend time with the kids at the same time. Haley really enjoys doing that kind of stuff too.

Oh this looks way to much like fun to me!! What an awesome idea and a great way to get the kids out using their imaginations and art skills. Just so happens I know someone here that has a long driveway.......Looks like I need to go buy several buckets of the chalk and go down there and we can have a ball quilting her driveway!! :D
