Then I make several copies of the line drawing. I color a few, let my daughter color a few then we go over them picking and choosing what we want to incorporate into the quilt. From that selection I color one that has everything we want in it. It sounds like a lot of work but really only takes a few hours to a day---not a bad time frame for the effort that will go into making the whole quilt.
That is a simply wonderful idea! Especially since I have a copier at the house and quite a few bright windows I could use.
