Chalk board fabric, has anyone?
Morning everyone, I purchased a yard of this and well I would like to use it to make a project for a 2yr. Has anyone made anything with this. I know all the stuff about curing the fabric ect. I did find a tic,tac toe pattern online. But just wanted to see if anyone else has worked with it and made some projects. Thanks in advance.

I made placemats for kids for our church bazaar. I used children's novelty prints on the back, and brought the edges to the front as bindings around the chalk cloth. In the bindng on one side, I inserted two strings (made from the novely fabric). These were used to roll and "tie up" the placemat. On the otherside, I inserted a loop of elastic to hold a piece of chalk. I also put a piece of "pinked" flannel in each one for an eraser. They sold well!!
