3 years ago I made a quilt with pics, used the fabric sheets- Printed Treasures ? (whatever is referred to here) and it is still as nice as then. I have a HP7550 for photo printing. The quilt hasn't been washed as it's a memory quilt.
I bought a new printer HP6200 series. Haven't really played with the fabric printing feature, but have a project coming up that I will use it.
