people say printed treasures is really good, i don't know how expensive it is, i have used muslin and ironed it to freezer paper and it goes through the printer just fine. it's been suggested that to make pics last longer and not fade a product called bubblejet set should be used, as mine did fade i'm going to try it next time. I'm sure others here will have better advice for you as i am fairly new (2yr) quilter. But that has been my experience with pics on quilts.
