I just printed all my pictures then worked the fabric around them. Think of them as one full block, or as a log cabin. The pictures are the center square and build from that point. Have fun, make it fun. Dont worry you can do this. I tought myself how to quilt by trying, doing,and saying so what, I like it.

If you have a Wal Mart that has fabric, they carry fabric sheets for Ink Jet Printers. Colorfast Sew In. That is where I got mine. You can also buy them from most LQShops.

I have tried fabric sheets from Fons and Porter, Joanns, etc. The best ones I have found come from a company called Color Textiles. Google them and see all the different fabrics plus their fabric really takes the inks better. More saturation
