Colleen, what a great quilt. I love it. Been thinking about doing something similiar for my brothers.

What a nice thing to do for your friends. Isn't it wonderful to have friends who mean so much to you?

That's really nice! Of course, me being from the San Francisco Bay Area, I'll bet you can guess which panel is my favorite! (Hint it's 'Golden')

that is beautiful! and so thoughtful of you! i'm sure they loved it!

What a fantastic idea!!!! OO my wheels are spinning.Thanks for sharing!

What a wonderful gift!

are these pictures you printed on fabric or just panel you purchased?

the pictures are my friends in NC. they sent me a ton and i made choices of what i wanted to use. i used fabric and printed them on the printer.. (there is a process you go thru to make the pictures last and not fade).
if you are interested just let me know and i can give you names of products that i used...

Thanks Colleen
I have made some pillows with pictures I printed on fabric. About 7 years ago my sister, her DH, me and myDH all took a trip and at one place we visited a wildflower farm. Got some great pictures and for Christmas that year I made her some pillows using the pictures. They are still holding the color so was very pleased with the result. I will be trying the quilt--that a great idea.
