Beautiful! Would love the flower patterns to trace and your instructions. I can't get over how pretty they are!

Thank you all for your comments. I had a quilt guild meeting tonight so I'm just getting back to this.
I haven't treated the fabric. I quilt the design with my longarm and then color it. I also did the Playtime Remembered larger, maybe 24" where this one is about 18". The bigger size makes it too large of an area to color as far as I'm concerned. There is a clear paint medium that you are suppose to paint over this but I'm figuring if they are wall hangings, I'll probably just vacuum them I'm just using Prang colored pencils. Others say Prisma colored pencils are better but they are also a lot more expensive. Thought I'd try it less expensive till I decide I like the result.

These are beautiful. So you used colored pencils on your quilting? If you wash it, will it wash out?

It isn't suppose to, I did "set" the color with an iron. IF it does lighten, I'll just recolor it. But as I said, I'll just use this on wall hangings for now.
