I am in need of some informtaion. I would like to know if any of you have ever put photos to fabric? If you have how did you do it or did you take it to a copy service.

Thanks for any and all information.

Yes, I have done a couple of quilts where I scanned in the kid's artwork and printed it out and used it for centers in my blocks. I ordered BubbleJet 2000 and it works great. You just soak your fabric let it dry and put it in your paper place on your printer. Some people press the fabric to freezer paper and feed it through. BubbleJet is a great product and is easy to find.Amie

I have done several picture quilts.

I buy the fabric sheets that are ready to feed right into your inkjet printer - no chemical altering by me. Some are not washable - some are washable, so depending on what your project is, is to what you will want. You can also buy fabric transfer/iron on sheets too. There are many prices across the different brands. I like Printed Treasures - although they are probably the most expensive. Others are June Tailor and EQ.

I have done this. I like the linen cloth paper. Copy the picture to your computer and print it out on the cloth paper. Be sure to heat set. I usually wait about 10 minutes before I put DRY heat to it.

I have used fabric blocks by milliken called printed treasures and never looked back to use anything else ever again and you can get it much cheaper on jhittlesewing.com this is the best stuff that money can buyand it also helps if you have a good printer.
