Lydia’s lines colouring book

Making and doingThese colouring books started with a conversation

about people colouring in during the Coronavirus

lockdown. As all of my drawings start with line,

I thought I might be able to help. So here they are.

This is one of a short series of short books.

They’re designed as A5 but can be printed out

bigger if you like working large.

For your colour, use anything you like! Crayons,

paints, collage, digital, embroidery – there are no

rules. You don’t even have to stay inside the lines!
