Thank you guys for all of your pointers! I appreciate all of them. I think I will practice a couple of the options and see what looks best. I also was playing around with the idea of using invisible thread… but that intimidates me 😆
The kids did such an amazing job on the squares. I actually just bought a bunch of fabric markers for them to use. I cut the squares and then lined the back with freezer paper to make it more stable for coloring/drawing. I made the freezer paper backing a little smaller so that they would hopefully not color the whole square and it would allow me room for the seam allowance. Then when they were done, I just removed it. Very easy!
