Here is a question, did you use Bubble Jet photo set? Did you buy a 200 count or higher cotton? Did you use freezer paper cut in 8 1/2 x 11" paper? Or did you do the iron on transfer stuff? I know with the transfer stuff I have issues and you need to go to your t-shirt press shop and their irons are hot enough to set it like it should be. When I use the Bubble Jet solutions, I have no problems at all. I have done many photo quilts and like the Bubble Jet best. One thing I learned in a class about photo quilts is that you must use a high count quality cotton. That is a must!

It's a queen size photo quilt and it has been a pain from day 1! I have had issues with pics bleeding, pics not resizing right, more bleeding, tons of research, MORE BLEEDING... needless to say I just want this thing out of my house and to the person who wants it!
