This is the first photo quilt I have made and thought you all might enjoy seeing it. I had a blast making it. I just love old pictures. It's for my mother-in-law's 83rd birthday in May. I added some quiltagami butterflies and some fabric rosettes to add dimension. Hope you enjoy!

I have just one word for your quilt.....
AWWWWWWWW....SOME

I have wanted to make a quilt like that but I didn't own a computer or copy machine when I first saw them a few years back. Did you find it easy to do? Is it washable?

Which one of the boys in the pics is your husband?

Thank you so much. I thought it was easy. I've only been quilting a year this spring. This was the fabric sheets for the ink jet printers that I used. There is a step you have to do after you print them to make them colorfast and I did that. I don't intend for this to be washed very often, and hopefully she will let me do it! Yes, it is washable, but I plan on her using it as a wall hanging. My husband is the only son and he's the one on the right back when he was young. He's 53 now! Thanks for looking...kim

How did you do the pictures? Did you use fabric sheets? Did it yourself or send it out?
