I was wondering if I could color in the design, then use my sewing machine to get detail in the picture.
if you like to paint, you can get fabric medium along with those little 2 oz bottles of acrylic paints and paint it. i did some of that on those flour sack towels for my grandmother several...several years ago. she used them all the time, when she passed away, they were frayed out at some of the edges, but the painting was still there, faded some, but not a lot
