This is a fun little gadget that creates a quilt pattern from a photo you upload: http://www.vam.ac.uk/microsites/quilts/patchwork

Here's one I tried with a Pioneer Woman photograph.

Love it. I put a picture of my grandson there and, by using the one with squares and triangles, you could see who it was and his bright blue eyes sparkled.
