That thought never crossed my mind. Back when I began putting them together, I just barely had a computer and the thought never crossed my mind. I think there might be copyright issues though since the original girl patterns were from the Tri-Chem company. I certainly did not draw them out myself. I just recently learned how to put photos on my quilts though with the fabric w/paper backing that you run through the printer. I plan to try some quilt labels with that technique next week and will let you know how it turns out. But your suggestion to a fabric manufacturer makes me think that if any of them ever read these quilting blogs, they might dream up something similar and perhaps it would be a good seller. I know I really love the old fashioned paper doll prints on fabric that are popular now.
