I tried to search the site using photo paper but got lots of photos and info on paper piecing.

I am trying to include photos in a quilt I am making for my nephew. I used a product that was 100% cotton poplin and followed the directions. When the photos were printed they looked wonderful.

Then I rinsed them as the dierections said. The color faded so much that even the pictures had 1 thing on them they are unrecognizable. What did I do wrong? Is there a better product I could have used?

Any other suggestions? Thanks.
