[quote=raptureready]If I can't find a sheet to print for what I want to do, I find a picture of what I want, print it out, enlarge it to the size I want then put it on my lightboard with a piece of white paper over it and make a line drawing of the pattern. 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.

That is an excellent way to do this. And it was also the way my two daughters and I used to decide on what color to paint my house a couple of years ago. We finally decided to go with white and green trim, green to match all the shrubs and trees around it.
