That is the original question.
I had another question about finding a pattern to put the photos into a quilt.

I'm quilting cross stitch blocks into a wall hanging for a friend now. I had to stop because the squares were getting puffy, and she wanted flat. I backed each square with double sided fusible. I then fused in place to the batting. I then machine quilted a frame stitch around the square. I finished machine quilting the wall hanging. I don't know how this would work with a big quilt though. Too much trouble.
