The kids in my son's 5th grade class each made a square for this tote bag using glue as a resist to draw the flowers onto white fabric. After the glue dried, we used textile paint (watered down) and foam brushes to paint the fabric. When the paint dried, we washed the glue out of the fabric and the wonderful flowers emerged. Isn't it terrific? Such a great project to do with children. The bag is for the spanish teacher at their school, who was recently diagnosed with Stage 4 Lymphoma. Her favorite color is orange and I know she's going to love it!!
