    For the memory quilts in which you use pictures, do you need a special printer for that, or just special paper/fabric?
    Hope that makes sense. Thanks

    You need an ink-jet printer and purchase fabric ready to print on. http://www.quiltingboard.com/search....+quilts&u=&s=0

    There are several threads on this link to give you more information.

    I just use my regular printer with EQ printables - the fabric is stiffer then normal . I have only used the one type - I think they have several thread counts . Also June Taylor makes it- and I think Bubble set helps set inks on fabric

    I just use the special paper you can buy at Quilt Shops. They come out great on my regular printer.

    I use Printed Treasure Sheets. They aren't cheap but worth it!
