I love all the memory quilts posted here. How do you go about making them - getting the pictures on the fabric? Do you need a special printer?

I used my regular ink jet printer. I had to buy special fabric that has been treated to hold the ink. Then I just scanned the pics into my computer and printed them out.

Yes, June Taylor makes ink jet fabric cotton cut to size for printer...I usually put whatever amt my scanner will hold and put on one sheet...then I use lit heat bond to attached to top fabric and do a decorative stitch around each photo....
