her crayons. Crayon Challenge August 2016
* * * Back in the day, of course, the paper most available to us was manilla paper, thus the slightly textured "manilla" background. * * * To this day, though a grandmother with a grandson who just started college, I remember the joy of sitting on the floor coloring. I had a new color book, and my father got down on the floor with me, and showed me how to outline an object with a color darkly, and then color within that area. I was totally fascinated with how beautifully he colored. I was so happy that he took the time to sit down on the floor and color with me. He also showed me how to draw tornadoes. He had his office at home, and we were allowed to use as much paper as we wanted to. So I would swirl a tornado on a piece of paper, set it aside and do the same thing, perhaps with a different crayon. If I had paper, scissors and crayons, I was a happy camper. * * * If you would like this design in another size, please send me a message through the link in the left hand column. * * * Happy sewing! * * * Copyright Mary K Wykes 8-20-16
