Has anyone ever done a Crayron Stained Quilt? I seen one but I would like to know more about how to do one.

You color with the crayon and then put paper towels over it and iron. The wax comes out and the color stays.

You can use regular crayons,

or there are a couple options, specifically designed to color on fabric:

I used the Pentel crayons to make this table runner with my grandkids. They each colored a white egg, we ironed it to set the colors, then they made a flip and sew stiped egg, I sandwiched it, and added binding.
