SHE WILL LOVE IT!!! The memory quilt is wonderful. Don't point those little things out, they'll never see them as that's not what they are looking at. You did an outstanding job, be proud. She will cherish it. Table runner is very pretty, but I KNOW what you have put in on that memory quilt and the challenges they present.

love the quilt, I know printing on fabric is tricky some times, do you have any tips or warnings to share?

Thank you everyone for your kind comments. We have just returned from Melbourne where we gave my MIL the quilt and she loved it, since the party last weekend she has taken it everywhere to anyone who will look at it, lol. She wants to hang it in the lounge room, so I should probably make her another quilt for her bed.

The main problem I had with the photo fabric was that it almost seemed to stretch although the photos and all the rest of the fabric was pre washed and ironed, my SIL suggested next time maybe trying to iron on a stabilizer to the photos, so if I ever decide to tackle one of these again I might try that. I was happy with the quality of the photos though.
