Hi everyone! I want to make participating in Alan's quilt as quick and easy as possible for everyone. Mom and I both have lots of muslin and freezer paper, so we are going to just make up a bunch of 8.5" square freezer-backed blocks, all ready to be colored and written on, to send out so you and your families can just write and color on them.
All you need to have on hand are Crayola color crayons and, if you want, a black permanent fabric marker (you'll find these in fabric shops). If you want to transfer a coloring book image to the block, you can just tape the block over the image on a sunny window and trace it, or I used a glass cutting board in my lap with a lamp shining underneath and it worked great.
You and your families can just decorate them and send them back to me- Mom and I will do the ironing and finishing of them.
So, if you would like some blocks to decorate, please write/call/e-mail me soon with a ballpark number of how many you think your family would like to do, and your mailing address (I have some of your addresses, but not all), and I will send you the blocks and instructions!
