How do I Add Pictures to a memory quilt
#11
Please remember ... if you use your own fabric it should be washed appropriately [I use Synthropol] and NO fabric softener added to the wash water or the dryer.
Have fun and we'll be looking for pictures of the completed quilt.

I have used Bubble Jet Set- just follow the directions on the bottle exactly and it sets the ink from your inkjet printer- much cheaper than the treated paper pieces. I cut pieces of freezer paper 8x11 along with flat white fabric the same size that you are going to put through your printer. Be sure all the little strings are cut off so they don't get into your printer. Iron the fabric and the freezer paper together, print your picture and treat with the Bubble Jet Set. I have washed a t-shirt design several times that I printed like this and it looks just fine. I also made a quilt for my DH using this method.
