Photo Quilt
I have been asked to make a photo quilt. I need to know what kind of printer do I use? How do I keep the photo from bleeding once it is on the fabric? And if there is anyone that has made one of these, how much do you charge? Thanks!

I've made a couple photo quilts. I use the fabric sheets made for use with an inkjet printer. Just follow the directions. The fabric sheets are not cheap. There is a product that you can use to make your own fabric sheets - but I haven't done that yet (Nancy's Notions has a product). I would definitely not make a photo quilt for one that you expect to have to launder a lot. They do fade with washings. As far as charging - I've only done for family, so I can't help you there. Good luck!

On you tube, the Cowboy Quilter ( whew!) actually has a tutorial on this. I've watched it, but don't have a link. Should be easy to find. Oh, did I mention that he is a Cowboy Quilter....
