Looking for Someone Who Turns Photos Into Quilt Patterns
2 Attachment(s)
I would like to know if there is anyone who knows or who is out there that will turn a photo into a quilt pattern. My photos are shown below. Not sure which will work best. I want to make a wall hanging approximately 27" x 36". Thank you for your help. Yolanda

Are you wanting to do a collage?

if you want it super realistic, spoonflower will print it

Sewing with Nancy had a gal on twice as a guest that showed you how to do this. You might check her videos on her site to watch those two episodes. There are also whole books you can buy that takes you through the process step by step. Just google picture or photo quilt books.

Spoonflower is a great idea.

Thank you for your replies. Watson, I am not doing a collage for this project! I did find a class on Bluprint (Craftsy). I will read and watch that class. I have been to Spoonflower but was not able to find what I was looking for. (It's me, I know.) I will check their site out again. I also will check Nancy's videos too. I am so grateful for your input. At first, I was just going to do the Beluga whales but this photo of my great granddaughter with the whale is just so sweet that I thought I would explore the possibilities of putting her in the wall hanging.

I think you’re speaking of Tammie Bowser. Here’s her website. I’ve made a quilt from her software, it was a lot of fun!

Cynthia England of England Design Studios does picture piecing. www.englanddesign.com I took a class from her years ago where she showed us how to turn a photo into a quilt. She has also published a book. She does have some videos on www.youtube.com
There is also some ideas on pinterest. |
There are also programs you can buy which will turn your photo into a mosaic. One I have is PC Stitch. It turns the photo into a colored map of squares. It's really for doing counted cross stitch, but works well for mosaic quilts.
