I have been asked to make a photo/memory quilt. The problem is that I do not have an ink jet printer. Is there a place I can send the photos and they can apply it to fabric for me?

I use Printed Treasures Fabric sheets. Maybe you could go to an office supply store like Staples and you could use their printer with the sheets or they could print them on for you. Good Luck!!

That's a good thought. Don't know why I didn't think of that!

go online to Spoonflower.com upload your picture and choose what fabric you want it on.
They are very nice to do business with.
I did not find an ofc supply store with an ink jet printer and you can't use laser jet. It will burn it up.
good luck in your journey.

I purchased a test sample with one picture to see how it comes out. It will be an 8x8 size from that website. I will let you guys know how it comes out.

Have you ever used them to design your own fabric? It doesn't just do photos you can also submit designs. I was just wondering if you had ever tried that??
