I have curtains with a tiny pattern of flowers on. I really like the curtains but want to change the colour of the centre in the flowers. Do you think l could do it with chalk paint?

I wouldn't. I would get washable fabric paint instead.
I'd use fabric paint and follow the directions. Best of luck.
I'd use fabric paint. You could even use fabric markers sold in fabric stores since it's such a small area.
Yes. My daughter had curtains she liked but they were missing a color that tied the room together. I painted the centers of the design and it worked. I think I used cheap Folk Art Paint from Walmart instead of chalk paint. Cost: Less than $2.
Why not use fabric paint pen? I don't think chalk paint would wash.
Yes but you will have to add what is called fabric medium to your paint. Available at craft stores. You will also have to heat set the paint with an iron or your dryer after the paint is dry.

It will not look right, and will cause problems when you go to launder the curtains.
