Has anyone ever made or seen a collage quilt with wedding photos? My friends son recently got married and I was thinking of printing some of the pictures onto fabric and making a collage type quilt, nothing symmetrical. Does that make sense? I've been looking for ideas on the internet and haven't seen anything so I thought I'd check with everyone here. I can't quite figure it out in my head how I would do it.

You could make the quilt top out of pieced squares, then scatter the photos bordered in darker colors across it and applique them down.

I recently made one for my daughter, I put the printed fabric photos in squares with star points. I used her wedding colors of satin for the top (real pain), then backed it with satin. It turned out nice, she wanted it tied with satin ribbon, which I did, except now her cats are chewing on the ribbons, may have to bring it back when I finish this other one for her. She has to have coordinating sheets with her quilts, so now she's getting a blue one.

I seen one on this site that someone had a link, check search for wedding quilt or photo quilt. Someone posted a link that used the actual wedding dress for the pattern and wow was that beautiful.

This is a wedding quilt a customer made and I quilted for her. It was outstanding when it was done!

I've seen them done but I haven't done them myself yet. I'm working on a wedding gift quilt now and I'm scanning the wedding invitation, the bridal shower invitation and a picture of the couple at the wedding. I'm going to print all three onto fabric and make them the labels on the back of the quilt.

wow, awesome quilt

Sounds like a really neat idea. Go for it it will be great.
