    I have been quilting for about 1 1/2 years and very interested in making a memory/photo quilt. I have old photos but no scanner. I'm not sure how to get the pics on to the fabric. I do have the printed treasures paper. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Nancy

    I suppose you'll have to get a copier with a scanner, or use a friends! Good Luck and Welcome to the Board!!

    I use a liquid called Picture Perfect and then make a photocopy of the photo as it is best to use photocopy. It is a bit more work using the Picture Perfect but lots cheaper. You will get it at craft supply stores.
    Enjoy using it.

    I'm thinking about getting a scanner. I was told that I could go to Kinkos and they would make copies, but, that it would be very expensive. Thanks for your reply. Nancy

    thanks for the reply. I have not heard of Picture perfect before. Probably because I never have looked for it. I will however, go and research it. Thanks again. Nancy
