Hi Everyone!
I am looking for some good information on creating a basic Picture or Memory Quilt. I browse the internet and there is so much out there but need it from the Pro's!
I finally got in touch with Spoonflower to make my fabric photo's. I am making this for a lady in Indiana and hopefully more. I would appreciate any tidbits of advice and info you care to share! Thanks.

I've done 3 memorial quilts for friends whose children and grandchild have passed. I print pictures with my color printer onto fabric sheets that I purchased at Joanne's. They have turned out great. I'll try to attach a couple of pictures.
